    Close Up Radio Spotlights Author Coby McGee

    in Books

    Abilene, TX - Coby McGee, an emerging author hailing from Lubbock, Texas, proudly announces the release of his inspirational memoir, Treasures of Darkness. This deeply personal narrative intricately weaves the triumphs and tribulations of a young man’s quest for higher education, entrepreneurship, spiritual growth, and the unyielding pursuit of divine guidance and self-discovery.
    McGee’s memoir, Treasures of Darkness, dives deep into his childhood experiences. Growing up amid normalcy and turmoil, particularly after relocating to Lubbock following his parents’ divorce, readers learn about the difficulties posed by absent or abusive father figures. Throughout these trials, his mother’s unwavering commitment to the church provided a beacon of hope, instilling early beliefs in God’s love. This nurturing environment provided great comfort and new perspectives on his life going forward.
    Treasures of Darkness encapsulates McGee’s transformation from suffering to faith and gratitude.
    McGee addresses contemporary societal and religious issues within his memoir, critiquing the shift towards shallow, prosperity-centric teachings in modern churches.
    Ultimately, Treasures of Darkness aims to reshape readers’ perspectives on God—portraying Him as a loving, patient, and kind presence instead of a strict enforcer of rules. McGee’s experiences advocate seeking God’s comfort during adversity, fostering a genuine and intimate spiritual connection. The author underscores the necessity of humility in dark times, leading to a deeper understanding and relationship with the divine.

    in Books

    Justice can be elusive. Family secrets can be deadly. The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking in a volatile criminal case filled with unanswered questions. And Carrington Reed is running short on time to piece together clues that will solve the puzzle. Hostage negotiator Carrington Reed is called to the scene when reports come in that fifteen hostages are being held by the Kendrix brothers in an abandoned house in south Texas. When she arrives on site, Carrington quickly learns that the brothers are armed and refuse to release their victims, a group of undocumented immigrants, until the local police identify their father’s murderer. Working closely with Levi Ehrlich, a handsome investigative reporter who has covered some of Carrington’s negotiations in the past, she finds herself being undeniably drawn to him. Carrington digs deeper into the death of the Kendrixes’ father and begins to notice that some details surrounding his death aren’t adding up. As Carrington investigates the brothers’ claims and tries to piece together their motive for taking innocent people captive, it soon becomes clear that they are trying to hide something and that revenge for their father’s death may not be what they’re really bargaining for after all. To protect the hostages and ensure the brothers don’t carry out the rest of their sinister plot, Carrington must get to the bottom of one family’s secret and the truth they’re trying so hard to hide before time runs out.
