From the book's slip cover: "Nothing interesting ever happened in the small, eastern Washington wheat town of Antioch - until now. Without warning, Antioch has suddenly become a gateway for the supernatural - from sightings of angels and messianic images materializing in the sky to a weeping crucifix with the power to heal.

Yet these miracles are only the beginning of something much bigger: the return of the Messiah as prophesied in the Bible. Then a self-proclaimed prophet mysteriously appears at a local ranch with a message...but is it from God?

In search of answers and hungry for miracles, the national media - along with the curious - flock in droves to the all-but-forgotten town. But what's great for local business has just the opposite effect on Travis Jordan. The burned-out former pastor has been trying to hide his past in Antioch. Now the whole world is headed to his backyard to find the Messiah, and in the process, every spiritual assumption he has ever held will be challenged. The startling secret behind this visitation ultimately pushes one man into a spiritual confrontation that iwll forever alter the lives of everyone involved.

The Visitation is an epic struggle between the forces of good and evil that will keep the pages turning - and your heart pounding - deep into the night. Frank Peretti, whose books have sold more than 8 million copies worldwide, is the undisputed master of supernatural thrillers. The author of best-selling books 'This Present Darkness', 'Piercing the Darkness', and 'The Oath', Frank lives with his wife, Barbara, in the Pacific Northwest." 519 pages, 32 chapters (including Prologue and Epilogue).
