Summary

"A gorgeous book that carries serious heft. This one comes highly recommended." — Geek Dad
Lucas Hart, a struggling screenwriter, is tortured by his addictions and inner demons. In his dreams, he recovers repressed memories of childhood abuse along with his extraordinary method of coping: astral projection. Lucas once again engages in out-of-body experiences, this time with angels, aliens, and otherworldly beings in hopes of finding the magician whose grace can transform the human race. A thrilling tale of unknown dangers and spiritual rebirth, Seekers into the Mystery takes readers on an unforgettable journey toward salvation.
