Now it's hungry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCenturies ago, a Spanish mission stood as a sanctuary of light against an ancient evil. In a single night, a demoness known as the Dark Rose and her Brotherhood reduced it to ash. A dying priest buried his final testament beneath the rubble - a warning for whoever would come next.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat night cost more than one man his life. The ancestors of South Point's founding families stood alongside Father Ramirez - and paid the same price. For generations since, angels and demons have fought over this contested ground, control passing back and forth like a tide that never fully retreats. The retiring pastor carries that history in his bloodline. His roots run to the founding of the city - and to a battle that has never truly ended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith no heirs to carry on his legacy, the senior pastor recruited Bo Ostermon to serve alongside him and eventually lead the congregation forward. Bo brings his family and a deep, unshakeable faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe church's missionary team has long tended to a nearby orphan camp - a humble outpost of compassion that has quietly grown over the years. But darkness doesn't ignore the innocent for long, and the evil presence hovering over the camp grows bolder with every passing season.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSouth Point carries a wound that runs deeper than anyone knows. Strange disappearances. Fractured families. A spiritual sickness silently spreading like termites through the foundation of an old house. And a corrupt sheriff and a mayor who looks the other way - willing to use blackmail, drugs, and violence to destroy anyone who threatens their grip on the town.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHelp arrives. If you can call a wounded amnesiac, a stray dog no one in town will claim, and a terrified teenage girl who has miraculously escaped a trafficking ring intent on selling her into darkness. Their arrival is no coincidence. The Stronghold has been waiting for them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBefore Bo can settle into his calling, he finds himself entangled in a web of evil that reaches further and deeper than anything he could have imagined. Lucifer himself has dispatched three veteran demon lords to hold The Stronghold at any cost - and the angelic host has been tasked to take it back. South Point is about to become a battlefield visible to very few - but felt by everyone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHE STRONGHOLD is an epic spiritual warfare thriller that pulls back the veil between the visible and invisible worlds - revealing a war fought not just with supernatural power, but with courage, loyalty, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond of a community that refuses to fall.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor fans of Frank Peretti, Ted Dekker, and Tosca Lee. For readers who believe the unseen world is more real - and more dangerous - than anyone dares to admit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat begins here doesn't end here. The Stronghold Series spans fourteen books - an unfolding war between darkness and light that grows deeper, darker, and more personal with every volume, built upon a J.R.R. Tolkien-scale world of richly layered spiritual truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798994708064\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eric N.
