Grace flees to the mountains with her aunt, intending to join a small group of Christians who would face imprisonment or death at home. But as troubles grow into conflicts, living with strangers in a survival crisis proves far more difficult than she’d imagined.
The newest member of the group, Maxwell Flynn, finds himself both captivated and repelled by Grace. But he doesn’t have time to give her much thought – he’s focused on protecting his little brother, an unusual boy with a devotion to God… and a strong tendency toward accidents.
Their daring escape is full of perils. Will the new group be captured or succumb to the wilderness? Can they find a way to carve out a tenuous existence in the dangerous new world?
SAINTS is the first book in the suspense-filled, post-apocalyptic TRIBULATION series. Like all books by Jamie Lee Grey, this is a faith-based, clean read. Join the adventure today!

4 Stars!!
“You can’t give any quarter to the enemy, Grace. Not a single piece of your heart or mind, and not a physical thing to comfort or aid them in their quest to destroy you.”
The story takes place in Canada, during the tribulation in the "Last Days." Persecution has begun and the Antichrist is in control. People are being turned in by their neighbors, and everyone has a chip except those who are living a "True" Christian Life. Our MC Grace who lives with her aunt is one of those who is facing persecution if they dont leave their home and head for the mountains.
Grace and her Aunt meet up with other followers to start a community deep in the wilderness. One of the newest members of the Group is Max, who doesn't know how to handle his feelings for Grace... I mean it is the end of the world- Does he have time for Love? He decides instead, to put all of his focus on his little brother, who has an amazing connection of his own with God.
I really enjoyed this one! The writing was decent and was invested from the first chapter. Something about survival and on the run type books that I really enjoy. The characters were likable and I appreciated how the author used scriptures to back up what was happening in the story as she went along. I am looking forward to the next two in the series to see where this group of people end up and how it all unfolds! -
Tribulation series by Jamie Lee Grey
Saints, book 1
Sinners, book 2
Martyrs, book 3
Genre: Christian Thriller & Suspense, Christian Sci Fi
This series follows a group of Christians who are forced to run from the government. Citizens are being forced to be microchipped in order to continue with ‘normal’ day to day activities. There is no longer any religion recognized other than the one declared by the world leader. This small group of survivalists must venture into the wilderness and depend on the strengths of each other to get them through.
Each of the books immediately follows the other, like a television mini-series. I thought this was a refreshing approach by the author. The story plays out to be more romantic suspense than anything else. I really enjoyed getting to know each of the members, especially the two main characters Grace and Maxwell.
In Saints, book 1 - members are just getting used to one another and suspicions rise. The many dangers in the wilderness begin to show themselves.
In Sinners, book 2 - Grace begins to feel the group has found their rhythm to their daily survival, but not all plans are God’s plan.
In Martyrs, book 3 - members are on the run again, the government’s reach seems to be getting closer. Will God reveal his plan to them?

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I finished it in two days! SAINTS follows a band of Christians into the wilderness as they run from the government. The author clearly knows about outdoor survival, because there were a lot of great survival details in this book. I think she did a great job balancing the everyday, mundane business of survival, with the constant stress of being hunted. Every time I relaxed a little, something crazy happened! I loved the sweet romance between Max and Grace, and I look forward to following their story through the rest of the series. I also loved Joel and his pony. Bring on Book 2!

Getting Ready
We all have to get ready. Not to “fly away” but to stand in the evil day! It is so refreshing to read a book that does not place Jesus’ Coming before the Tribulation. I’m so glad I stumbled onto it. We have to move forward to whatever God has for us... And, be the best witnesses we can while we can. For “the night is coming when no man can work”. -
YA romance novel
It has some really good parts, but it appears to be a YA romance novel. Lots of exclamation marks and inner thoughts about how two people feel about each other. Hoping the rest of the series isn't like this. I love this author so I'm pretty sure the action will pick up in the next book. -
Excellent!
This book is about a group of people who go into the forest to hide out from those who were wanting to capture Christians during the end times. I love Jamie Lee Gray books! -
Well written and captivating story about Max and Grace's budding relationship during tribulation. Written in a way that you can see the scenes unfolding before your eyes. The close knit relationship and dependance on God of the Christian group.
Excellent book -
Very good
This is a well written book with a great story line. From the start to the end, it draws you in making you have to keep reading to see what happens next. I can’t wait to read the next two books. -
Loved Loved this book. Keeps you wanting more. Looking forward to the next book.
It's an exciting adventure as you read the story of Christians struggle to survive in a world that considers them the enemy.
Makes you pray that we Christians won't be here when The anti Christ is revealed.
