Mega-church Pastor, Robb Barker, is possessed by a powerful demon and its helpers. He had carelessly invited the demon into his soul as a means of gaining power and control over the church board. The demon eliminated all of the board members who were opposing Robb's plan for spectacular growth. Some went to jail, some quit, and some were killed. But after the demon arranges an accident, in which his wife is nearly killed, and one daughter paralyzed, Robb realizes that the demon is in control of his life and possesses him. His life is a mess, and he is faced with some tough decisions. Should he reject what he has been taught about the idea of demons being only a fantasy? Or should he accept the friendship and advice of another pastor who promises help through a process called deliverance and exorcism? Robb goes through one deliverance session during which the demon causes Robb's body to thrash wildly, curse vehemently and then throw up. The pastor explained that since Robb had invited the demon into himself it is very difficult to extricate, but it can be done and they need to persevere. Robb humbles himself in front of those whom he has hurt and begins the process of rebuilding his life; but first he has to rid himself of the malevolent demon. Desperate, Robb attempts a strategy of closing off all of the portals through which demons might have entered him. He travels to his childhood home, his college and seminary campuses and to the churches he first pastored. In each locale he goes through the process of attempting to free himself. In response, the cunning demon summons supernatural help and demonic attacks begin on Robb's wife and daughters. From Disneyland to the Grand Canyon to the Colorado Rockies the demonic attacks continue mercilessly. Finally Robb realizes he must go to the site of the original sin, the Garden of Eden to confront his ancient enemy and most formidable foe. The novel ends with demonic sponsored terrorist attacks and Robb's battle for.
