About this listen
Twenty-five years have passed since the cataclysmic event that left over three hundred million people in the dark and forever changed America, and the world.
In the aftermath, Major Aaron Styles and his brave soldiers embarked on a perilous mission to hunt down those responsible, while Carl and Ella Raydon fought to bring their children to safety on their family ranch. As rumors began to circulate that Christian fundamentalists were behind the disaster, the faithful found themselves under siege, facing persecution and oppression from a world that had turned its back on God. The government declared faith a national security threat and outlawed it, driving many underground.
But amidst the chaos and darkness, a remnant remained steadfast, refusing to abandon their faith even in the face of extreme adversity. One such group was led by Aaron Styles and the grandchildren of Carl and Ella Raydon, but theirs was not the only story being written. This was, and remains, God's story.
Follow the epic tale of a world plunged into darkness and chaos, where faith is outlawed and the faithful are persecuted. Discover the extraordinary resilience and unwavering faith of those who dared to stand firm in the face of oppression and hardship. This is a story of hope, redemption, and the enduring power of faith, even in the darkest of times.

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
After the killing of a prominent mob lawyer, NYPD homicide detectives Jacob Jackson and Caitlin Grimes start receive chilling, written “rules” for how to commit the perfect murder. "Rule number one for the perfect murder: Evidence is your enemy. Leave none behind." Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The words on the pages of this book don’t just tell a story, they are a warning. They speak of a future that is not far off, a future where the faith of millions is threatened by Satan. They speak of a time when persecution and violence are the norm, and the very act of believing in Jesus can mean a death sentence. The characters in this tale are just fictional constructs, but they are also representatives of the faithful. They are the ones who will stand strong in the face of adversity, who will fight for what is righteous no matter the cost. They are the ones who will be tested to the ...

“Aubrey clenched her hand over Alice’s mouth to muffle the cries of pain being caused by the pressure she was putting on her stomach wound. In the distance, she could hear their pursuers talking. Deacon was barking orders. Looking around at the abandoned warehouse, she saw ways to get out, but not for both of them, and she wasn’t leaving her twin behind. Certainly not for Deacon to find.” Ex-FBI agent Elijah Turk and twins, Aubrey and Alice Raydon, along with Cousin Evan Raydon, have opened a thrift store in St. Louis in the new America. They thought they could finally live a ...

Story
The once great America now lay in ruins, its people oppressed and controlled. The blame for the devastating EMP attack had been placed on Christian fundamentalists, and the years of tribalism had only fueled the fire of hate towards them. The government needed a common enemy to rally the people, and Christians were the perfect target. Those who dared to practice their faith were now outlaws, forced underground and stripped of their rights to work or participate in society. But even in the midst of persecution, the church held fast to their faith and relied on God more than ever. As armies ...
