Victor Black - And the Garden of the Gods

Victor Black seems to have it all. He graduated at the age of sixteen. His parents have money, and his father is a high-ranking military official in Colorado Springs. Victor is also a competitive figure skater and world traveler.
Everything was supposed to be perfect when high school ended; the fulfillment of teenage dreams-a bright future, the ideal college, excellent friends, and the perfect career.
However, Victor has secrets and a deep depression that no one knows about, and which he doesn't understand himself. His head hurts all the time, and he hears voices.

One Sunday in the Great Church-a week after Kai's funeral and two weeks since Kai killed himself-Victor flips a quarter. No one in the church has a clue as to his plans. His mother is worried about him, and his father can't seem to stand him. The pastor won't listen to him, and his nemesis Lyle insults him.
However, the creepy "woman in gray" sitting at the back of the church seems to agree with him, telling him to "Do it," setting forth a series of events Victor never expected.

Victor flees the church to meet Willow-his skating partner and developing love interest-and some friends. In doing so, he bumps into the old lady Fiona who reads his fortune and gives him the bad news; and doesn't dissuade him from his decision.
After a night of partying, and ridiculously strong marijuana, Victor decides to go through with his plan, but dying as not as easy as he thinks. He meets the owner of the voices and learns the fate of the world is upon them all.

Victor, with the help of his friends, meets the woman in gray-Regan-face to face and saves the Grays. It's only the beginning.
As the clouds with red lightning descend, and the fog thickens, and people silently disappear, Victor learns his destiny. The fight for his family, friends, and the future of humanity is just beginning.
