From the Back CoverBest-selling novelist Bill Myers weaves a supernatural trilogy that sweeps you from the frontiers of DNA research, through mind-numbing encounters with the paranormal, to the fulfillment of end-time biblical prophecy. Meticulously researched, this is more than a last-days thriller. It is a passionate, convicting, and moving portrait of the character and heart of Christ. In book one, Blood of Heaven, death-row inmate Michael Coleman serves as the guinea pig in a genetic experiment involving the blood of Christ. The results are astounding. But behind the scenes, a monstrous plot emerges that only Coleman and accomplice Katherine Lyon can stop. In Threshold, Brandon Martus, troubled possessor of an uncanny gift, becomes the subject of a paranormal research project. But when the experiment goes awry, Brandon and scientist Sarah Weintraub are plunged headlong into a terrifying supernatural conflict . . . and a destiny neither of them could have envisioned. In Fire of Heaven, Brandon and Sarah, joined in marriage, become living examples of Christ and his church. Accepting their identity as the two witnesses of Revelation, they are purified through fiery trials that show them the incalculable depths of God's love. And as hellish forces make their bid for world dominion, Brandon and Sarah must proclaim that love to an apostate church . . . and judgment on a rebellious planet.
