In Stonebrook, survival is the only rule. Fifteen-year-old Ezra Thomas knows how to stay invisible-at home, at school, in the streets. But when a classmate is violently attacked and Ezra sees something no one else does-a shadow curling from the bully's mouth, whispering lies that feel alive-he's forced to face a truth he's not ready for: The war isn't just in the streets. It's in the spirit. Drawn into a hidden battle between darkness and light, Ezra begins to uncover secrets buried in scripture, echoes of ancient truths, and a calling that could break him-or save everyone he loves. With a frayed Bible verse in his pocket and fear gripping his chest, Ezra must decide: will he keep running from what he sees... or will he stand and fight? Even if the first battle is in his own soul.
