Publisher Description
“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:12
After the film in her camera is mysteriously destroyed at a small-town festival, reporter Bernice Kreuger knows she’s found something worth covering up. She brings the investigation to her boss, Marshall Hogan. Along with the local pastor of a struggling church, Hank Busch, they find something much bigger than they expected—a demonic plot to enslave their town and, eventually, the world.
The tiny college town of Ashton becomes the unlikely battleground in a cosmic clash between good and evil. Unseen by the human protagonists, armies of angels and demons wage war against one another in the spiritual realm for the souls of the people of Ashton. Up against supernatural forces, the future of the town seems bleak – but the power of prayer might be able to influence the outcome of the fight.
This fast-paced thriller birthed an entirely new genre, setting the standard for spiritual suspense. It has since sold over 2 million copies worldwide, sparking a renewed interest in the concept of spiritual warfare.
Customer Reviews
A brilliant spiritual thriller!
I must confess that I'm new to Frank Peretti, but I'm glad I found him sooner than laster. This my first book from him and I was not disappointed. It's exciting and a little bit scary, but nothing that will have to hiding under the sheets. It presents the spiritual realm as it is and the war between angels and demons that happens everyday around our lives. This is a real eye opener, must read!
An amazing story
This book is a must read. One of the very few I have read twice. It will forever change the way you look at the world and the ending will leave you speechless.
