More Description"God does not sell, violence and sex is what's bringing in the money."Peter Johnson had only one wish; he wished to be a teacher again. There was one problem though, he was a beggar and nobody was going to ever employ him again. The wealthy Kathy Atkinson was trying her best to help her husband. Not being able to get over the deaths of their twin daughters in a car accident, Michael was slowly turning into a monster. Both the Atkinsons and Peter saw their redemption in a miracle event that was coming to town. Their paths crossed when a heavy thunderstorm disrupted people's efforts to get tickets for this event and Peter offered to queue for Kathy in exchange for a ticket. She eagerly accepted the beggars offer but in a twist of fate, the Pastor who was to speak at the event was seriously injured in a car accident on his way there. When thousands of people started to leave in disappointment, the beggar was saddened at the commitment of their faith. Still dressed in his pitiable clothes, he took to the stage and challenged their devotion to God. Being the professional teacher he once was, he delivered a most powerful speech from the podium. A highly acclaimed TV producer became enthralled by the intellect of the beggar but was told; 'God does not sell, sex and violence is what's bringing in the money'. Risking his future and counting only on the wisdom of the beggar, the producer persuaded him to take up a role in a TV programme. Together they started what was to become a very controversial crusade. Peter Johnson's life was never going to be the same again; nor the lives of those who would get involved with his. A Silence That Kills is a book that is fast-paced, believable, inspiring and thought-provoking.
