Cain

You only thought you knew

Shelia Cosper unearths the raw, ancient story of Cain and Abel like you’ve never seen it before—pulling back the veil on the world’s first murder to reveal a web of ancient conspiracies, forbidden truths, and the birth of secret societies buried since the dawn of time. Cain isn’t a retelling—it’s a revelation. Drawing from apocryphal texts, mythological threads, and biblical whispers, Cosper breathes new life into the shadowy figure of Cain, Adam’s beloved son, reimagining his fall not as simple jealousy but as a descent shaped by betrayal, divine silence, and a New God.

For readers who question the Biblical narrative and seek the lost stories between the lines, Cain is a bold excavation of mystery and meaning. From the origin of sin to the primal tension of Cain’s lust for a woman not his own, this novel explores timeless themes with fresh insight and cinematic intensity. Cosper’s storytelling fuses vivid historical atmosphere with rich imagination, inviting readers to ask: What if the story of our beginnings is far deeper, darker, and more human than we ever believed? If you’re ready to uncover the hidden Genesis—Cain will change how you see everything.

The novel explores how love, when unmet or misunderstood, can turn toxic. Cain’s emotional unraveling is painful to read, but impossible to look away from. The writing is gorgeous, and the themes are universal.
