Waco, Texas, 1993. People from all walks of life have arrived to follow the Lamb¡¯s gospel¡ªsigning over savings and pensions, selling their homes and shedding marriages. They¡¯ve come here to worship at the feet of a former landscaper turned prophet who is preparing for the End Times with a staggering cache of weapons. Jaye¡¯s mother is one of his newest and most devout followers, though Jaye herself has suspicions about the Lamb¡¯s methods¡ªand his motives.

Roy is the youngest son of the local sheriff, a fourteen-year-old boy with a heart of gold and a nose for trouble who falls for Jaye without knowing of her mother¡¯s attachment to the man who is currently making his father¡¯s life hell. The two teenagers are drawn to each other immediately and completely, but their love may have dire consequences for their families. The Lamb has plans for them all¡ªespecially Jaye¡ªand as his preaching and scheming move them closer and closer to unthinkable violence, Roy risks everything to save Jaye.

Based on the true events that unfolded thirty years ago during the siege of the Branch Davidian compound, Bret Anthony Johnston¡¯s We Burn Daylight is an unforgettable love story, a heart-pounding literary page turner, and a profound exploration of faith, family, and what it means to truly be saved.
