In this timely re-release of Ted Dekker’s collaboration with the 80 year old evangelist, Bill Bright, this book gives a combined thriller and spiritual makeover. With biblical themes translated into high adventure - with a rich strand of romance, the creative imagination of Dekker and theological mind of Bright produce an action-packed, fast moving plot around the intriguing issue of child miracle workers.

The drama focuses on Caleb, a 10-year-old Ethiopian boy with extraordinary powers: raising a man from the dead, restoring sight to a blind boy, healing a paraplegic. Amid the turmoil surrounding the boy’s miraculous abilities Jason, of the Peace Corps, must spirit the boy away to safety with the help of Leiah, a Red Cross nurse. Escaping to the US, Caleb falls under the influence of Father Nikolous, who loses no time in exploiting those powers for his own financial gain. As if that wasn’t enough for any 10 year old to deal with, a powerful politician realises that Caleb holds the key to the destruction of his presidential ambitions, and contracts for the boy's murder.
But nothing can prepare any of them for what happens next.

“Whoever said that a straightened hand was more dramatic than a healed heart anyway?” A young orphaned boy was abandoned in the midst of an invasion and raised in an Ethiopian monastery. He has never seen outside its walls—at least, not the way most people see. Now he must flee those walls or die. But the world beyond is hardly ready for a boy like Caleb.
