Life in a small western town could be boring but Nick knew he had it pretty good. His family was okay, he was doing well in high school and he had the best friends. Everything was just normal. Nothing was strange about his life at all.

But the summer before Nick’s junior year at Sheridan High, his world is torn apart. During a stormy Friday night party, while Nick and the other teens play with a Ouija board, Brad Raymond, Nick’s close friend, becomes possessed by a demon proclaiming itself a servant of the ‘Master.’ The fiend declares that God has tired of mankind and withdrawn the protection that kept the earth safe from the evils of hell. The possession ends as quickly as it began but leaves Nick questioning his sanity and Brad Raymond in a life-threatening coma.

Yet in the midst of this horror, Nick is introduced to Beth Tellie, a young woman who becomes a friend and then more as they try to understand what is happening.

The quiet town of Sheridan is now beset by isolated but horrifying and deadly demonic episodes that cannot logically be explained but seem to corroborate the profane future of which the fiend spoke. Nick is targeted by a powerful demon that demands his help in opening a gate for the invasion and in return promises to protect Nick, Beth and their family and friends. Nick is told that he has been born with the unique ability to breach the wall before the eventual fall, allowing one demon to completely cross over before the others. This lead would allow the demon to solely enslave the world, bringing it God-like powers.

Herein lays Nick’s dilemma. Mankind seems to stand no chance of survival, whether Nick helps the demon or not. He must choose to either aid the invading forces or stand with mankind. Should Nick help the ‘Master’ and save Beth and his family, leaving the rest of mankind to perish? Or can he find a way to fight back before the wall comes down?
