THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE CAN BE THEIR PLAYGROUND... but only if they survive the decades old fury of the The Evil One. The Evil One grew from a newspaper article about an illiterate Mississippi couple who discovered their infant son had learned to read by studying news photos and their captions. Doctors and university professors who analyzed the boy's feat were amazed. From that news item comes the story of Michael and Daniel St. James, abandoned nameless as infants at a California orphanage. Michael is a novelist. Daniel, obsessed with learning their identities, wanders the deep South in search of their roots. Unfortunately for the brothers, Daniel encounters an incredibly evil and powerful paranormal terrorist bent on destroying them both. But before he can warn Michael, he is attacked and left comatose in a rural Arkansas hospital, enshrouded by a mysterious blue-violet aura that baffles the doctors. Beautiful librarian Jessica Simms travels from Arkansas to California to deliver the devastating news to Michael. Powerfully drawn to each other, together they rush to Arkansas where they strive to solve the mystery of the aura, save Daniel's life, and defeat The Evil One. Puzzles galore, deep mystical love, bizarre attempts to murder Michael and Jessica, plus exciting paranormal fireworks-make The Evil One a compelling, high-speed read.
