Fast-paced action propels this Peretti novel about a conspiracy in a small farming community. It all begins when someone tries to kill Sally Beth Roe, a young loner with a dark past. Was it a case of mistaken identity, or is someone trying to mastermind a cover-up?

The suspense intensifies when a high-powered anti-Christian group files a child abuse lawsuit against the superintendent of the local Christian school. Before it's all over, the media, the police and a humanistic think tank get involved, and Marshall Hogan's investigation uncovers secret occult societies and murder.

Piercing the Darkness dramatically reminds us of the reality of spiritual warfare, and the ability of God's truthful light to burst through the darkness of humanism and New Age beliefs. But it is also a personal story about how the fervent prayers of devoted Christians help a young woman find real safety from the darkness that had claimed her soul, and real forgiveness from her tragically sinful past.

This thrilling audio abridgment, read by the author himself, is fortified with dramatic sound effects and music that bring to life all the excitement and intrigue of Frank Peretti's beloved novel, Piercing the Darkness.
