Derek Hollinger has walked a long, hard road since a fateful encounter with an
Indigenous shaman woman turned his life upside down. Now married to Kendal,
his angel and savior, Derek desperately wants to be the man she deserves. But
his obsession with his tattoos—what they mean and how to get rid of
them—is tearing down everything they’ve built together.
Paralyzed by depression and self-loathing, Derek is convinced that only one
person can help him now: the granddaughter of the shaman whose power inked him
from head to toe. Enlisting the aid of his loyal friend and spiritual advisor,
Father Mike, Derek treks deep into the heart of the Amazon jungle, where a
final reckoning between good and evil awaits.
But God’s plan for Derek isn’t what he expects. And coming back
alive—whole in mind, heart, and spirit—will require every ounce of
his fortitude and faith.
