The Portal
When Stephanie Hudson and her young family mysteriously disappeared one day without a trace, her best friend, Mariah, was certain that something had gone terribly wrong.
Now, thirteen years later, Stephanie and her two daughters have suddenly stepped back into Mariah’s life, with a story that almost seems too incredible to believe. They have fled from the seclusion of their home in Seaford, Delaware, and are desperately looking to hide from Stephanie’s distant and abusive husband, Chris.
When Mariah takes in Stephanie and her children, she quickly learns that there is something very special about thirteen-year-old Rebekah. She is a natural-born intercessor and missionary, always ready to talk about and pray to the God she, incredibly, has seemed to know all her young life.
Meanwhile, something is being unleashed on the world from the town of Seaford—sinister forces stemming from the mysterious business that takes place in historic Hudson’s Tavern. As the dangerous discovery of a sordid, age-old secret hangs in the balance, Mariah and Stephanie scramble to shed light onto it before a once-loving husband, now seemingly gone mad, finds Stephanie in her hiding place.
All the while, a thirteen-year-old prayer warrior is on her knees…

Loved reading the inspirational and riveting story. When Stephanie wants to leave her husband and the evil surrounding him, she leaves with her two daughters and runs into her old friend, Mariah, who takes them to her and Nick's house to stay. Read the highly recommended, wonderfully written, and a must read intriguing story of family, evangelism, and combating evil forces.
