In His Hands

"A fantastical, thought-provoking page turner" (Robert Foster, bestselling author of The Lunar Code).

In 1928, when Demetri Davos discovers a mysterious crystal ball that can grant him anything he asks, he soon learns that power always comes with a price. After two selfish requests result in the death of innocent people, he resolves never to use the orb again.

But when the Nazis begin their march across France, the desperate half-Jewish Demetri is forced into a life-or-death decision—and has to break his vow to make his escape. Years later in Chicago, he is rich and happily married—but a vengeful nemesis, who knows of the ball's power, now wants what he's owed—and will stop at nothing to get it.

With his family in peril, Demetri is forced to pay for his past, and for wishes granted, time after time . . . after time . . .

Spanning from Europe to America and across decades, In His Hands traces one good man's struggle to combat his own inadequacies and resist overwhelming temptation in a deadly moral tug-of-war.
