The Veil Between

The Veil is cracking. The fragments are waking. And the war has come to Dallas.

Mara Ellison has spent years helping others survive crisis while quietly carrying the pain of her own past. As a counselor in Dallas, Texas, she believes in God-but after the mysterious death of her mother, her faith has become guarded, careful, and full of unanswered questions.

Then one stormy night, a terrified teenage boy bursts into the South Dallas Family Resource Center carrying a strange silver coin that burns with impossible light.

Moments later, the shadows come alive.

Pulled into a hidden war between angels and demons, Mara discovers that her mother belonged to the Watchlight, a secret line of believers called to guard the Veil between the seen and unseen realms. But the coin is more than a relic. It is the first piece of an ancient Seal-one that can either protect the world or help unleash a fallen prince imprisoned beyond the Veil.

As supernatural signs spread across the city, Mara is joined by an unlikely group: a skeptical investigative journalist, a paramedic who sees spiritual wounds no doctor can explain, a worship leader whose voice breaks darkness, a young man haunted by guilt, and a mysterious angel with silver eyes whose past may hide dangerous secrets.

At the center of the darkness stands Lucien Vale, a beloved billionaire philanthropist whose charity empire hides something ancient, powerful, and deadly.

To stop him, Mara must face the truth about her mother, the wounds she has buried, and the calling she never asked to carry. Because darkness is not only attacking the city-it is studying every fear, every grief, and every broken place in those chosen to stand against it.

The Veil Between: City of Hidden Fire is a faith-based urban fantasy filled with action, mystery, spiritual warfare, angels, demons, diverse characters, emotional drama, supernatural wonder, and redemptive hope.

Some doors were never meant to open.
Some battles choose their warriors.
And some wounds become the place where the light gets in.
