Father-Son Police Duo Battles Demons in Disguise

In his final year behind the badge, beloved Portland Police Investigator Wayne Deetz and his wife Joanie are shocked to learn their youngest son, Brandon, 23, has signed up to follow in Deetz’s footsteps by joining the Portland Police Bureau—especially amidst the city’s recent riots, violence, and cancel culture.

When Deetz goes back in uniform to ride with Brandon during his field training, the father-son duo is dealt a harrowing, demonic case involving an unlikely gunman and a brash corporate executive. As they interview witnesses, discover shocking new evidence, and dare to search for bones in locked closets, they learn not only are their lives in peril, but the devil is out for their loved ones as well.

Book 5—the knockout punch in Creston’s pulse-pounding Signs of Life Series.
