Owen’s heart-pounding journey forces him to reconsider everything he believes as dangers loom too large to ignore. The Deception: A supernatural visitor tests Owen’s ability to discern between truth and lies as the community is rocked by abductions and disappearances. Forced to choose between the people he loves and trusts most, Owen must fight to discover what is real while uncovering the ultimate culprits in his town―human and otherwise―despite their determination to stay hidden. The Defiance: Owen Edmonds’s crucial mission to save lives escalates when seven Cosmic Rulers of darkness close in to decimate his town―and nation. As the battle between good and evil culminates in an epic standoff, Owen and the love of his life must make the decision of a lifetime: will they face their fears or run? Brimming with action, intense themes, and a touch of romance, these books are perfect for young adult fans of Frank Peretti and Christian supernatural fiction.
