5-star Amazon review of “Deep Rough: A Pastor Stephen Grant Novel” by Ray Keating heading into the U.S. Open: “I’ve enjoyed all of the Pastor Stephen Grant books, but this was one of the best to date. I enjoy the characters and the believability of the plots. After a few shorter stories, I liked the longer length of this one, as it’s a great diversion when you want to relax with a good book.”

About Deep Rough…

One man faces challenges as a pastor in China. His son has become a breakout phenom in the world of professional golf. The Chinese government is displeased with both, and their lives are in danger. Stephen Grant – a onetime Navy SEAL, former CIA operative and current pastor – has a history with the communist Chinese, while also claiming a pretty solid golf game. His unique experience and skills unexpectedly put him alongside old friends; at some of golf’s biggest tournaments as a caddy and bodyguard; and in the middle of an international struggle over Christian persecution, a mission of revenge, and a battle between good and evil.

Praise for this page-turner includes…

"... when the action does hit, it's exhilarating, and Stephen proves once again he's as capable in fights as he is in quieter times of prayer and worship. A fast-paced, exuberant outing for the virtuoso clergyman and his numerous comrades." - Kirkus Reviews

"Pastor Grant continues to be one of the most entertaining heroes in the political thrillers and suspense genre. With occasional pop-ins from fan-favorite recurring characters, Deep Rough fits in perfectly with the rest of the series - quirky, tightly woven, and difficult to put down. Keating manages to keep his writing fresh and surprising with every new Pastor Grant book. This series satisfies yet again, finding unique ways to entertain and enlighten along the way." - Self-Publishing Review

"Deep Rough is a well-paced novel, prescient in its inclusion of China …, with a plot borrowed from tomorrow's headlines, and real-world encouragement to speak up and act for the persecuted Church." - Lutheran Book Review
