Mitigating Circumstances is a compilation of real-life detective stories that highlight the grace of God in the lives of criminal offenders. Told in the first-person, Mitigating Circumstances describes how the professional life of an experienced private detective changed dramatically when Jesus became the Lord of his life. A gritty, often discouraging occupation morphed into a ministry, and these stories are the fruit of this ministry. These stories are meant to encourage readers that God can heal even the most hardened, hopeless offender.
