On the night before his eighteenth birthday, Justin Thyme's life takes an ominous turn. Plagued by visions and sudden blackouts, medical tests only raise more questions. Who is this adopted son of Mark and Jean Thyme? And, what does the survival of Angel Falls, hundreds of years ago, have to do with Justin today?

Now, Angel Falls faces a new threat-more serious than the drought that nearly destroyed it ages ago-prominent people are found murdered, there is fighting in the streets, and Justin's friends are suddenly thrown into perilous situations.

Justin's heritage becomes clear. A real war against evil is about to be waged, and Justin was born for just this time. The deliverance of his friends-indeed the entire population of Angel Falls-is in his hands!
