A ten-year-old boy known as “Luke” escapes from his abusive father, and a local pastor takes him in—only to discover that the boy is a prophet with a powerful anointing from God. Luke’s gift of prophecy leads him into direct conflict with the Fratellis, a powerful Mafia family with a generational curse of demon possession dating back to the sixteenth century.

As Luke navigates the spiritual world and the streets of Depression-era Denver, Colorado, he is befriended by three unlikely people: a member of the Fratelli family, the crusading attorney trying to take down the family, and Clara Crawford, an intriguing woman who is caught between the two sides. Will this boy and his gift be enough to save lives—and souls—before the cycle of revenge and demonic possession destroys everyone he knows? His only weapon is the all-powerful name of Jesus….
