NOTE: This book was previously published and all rights reverted to me. It's received a new cover, four new chapters have been added, and the book has been re-edited, but it is ultimately the same book that was published in August 2011. **WARNING -- ENDS IN A CLIFFHANGER** Where does the road to Hell begin? What happens when your son turns homicidal overnight and your husband disappears on his way to work? Do you cower in fear or fight for your life? Madison Wescott fights against the odds. Distrustful of a God she doesn't believe in, she finds herself face-to-face with a world she didn't know existed and discovers her own soul is darkened with demonic connections. With good intentions? Or by demonic design? Phoenix Birmingham bursts into Madison's life in a whirlwind of sarcasm and sexual appeal. A hero for the masses-and for her jaded heart-but few will ever know the sacrifices he has made or the sacrifices to come. Discovering her entire life has been influenced by multifaceted paranormal beings, Madison is determined to defeat the apocalyptic blueprint fate has decreed, but only one man dares to challenge the supernatural forces manipulating them. Even with Phoenix's aid, can destiny be denied? Or will demonic design prevail while they pay the crucial price with their souls? In a small, sleepy Alabama town the battle for mankind's liberty has begun...
