Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

More than a century ago a prophecy was foretold of a beguiling stranger who arrives as a light but whose heart is besieged by darkness, and of the child who would rise in strength and courage to counter this evil. When the two forces collide, the world would descend into Armageddon. It would all begin in the quiet little community of Capers, North Carolina. Insulated from the rest of the world by the Great Smoky Mountains, idyllic Capers is the kind of place where every parent dreams of raising their child: picturesque, wholesome and unsullied by crime. That is, until billionaire business mogul Noigel Braddock skulks into town. Noigel establishes a technology company that he promises will bring prestige and wealth to the hamlet, in the form of a sweeping global business innovation. Princely good looks and debonair persuasion, bolstered by his Ivy League education, belie his true identity. On the heels of this transformational development for the town, Capers residents Katy and Charles Leonardis welcome a son who quickly becomes known as "Teal" for his striking greenish-blue eyes. While every parent thinks that their child is special, even Katy and Charles cannot ignore the fact that some very strange and unsettling paranormal phenomena have unfurled around their son. Moral decay quickly falls over Capers as townspeople begin committing atrocities they never would have entertained before, and fearful encounters with the unknown take place. When these dark forces attempt to extinguish the life of young Teal, he inadvertently discovers the full range of his unusual but powerful gifts. Teal must race the clock and outmaneuver the older, more cunning Noigel to prevent total destruction of the town's residents.
