When firefighter John Casey heroically saves an elderly woman named Mrs. Parker in a terrible fire, he has no idea that this one act will change his life forever.

A mysterious letter arrives from Mrs. Parker's attorney, summoning John and his wife, Susan, to a meeting. The couple receives news they never expected. They are the sole beneficiaries of Mrs. Parker's incredible fortune, worth an estimated two billion dollars; they now own homes in Palm Beach, Boston, and New York.

With all this money comes a new challenge. As Christians, John and Susan know they need to be responsible stewards; accordingly, they give to their church and to other charities. Yet as soon as they travel to Florida to look at their new property, strange things begin to happen. Unsavory men begin following them and, unbeknownst to the couple, their own servants are involved in monitoring their every move.

As John and Susan, along with their best friends, Mark and Carol, begin to dig deeper into the Parker family history, they discover a sordid tale full of deceit, murder, demons, and angels. John and Susan must adorn the armor of God if they are to prevail over Satan's minions and emerge with their faith-and their lives-intact.
