When a group of complete strangers find themselves at the doorstep of a retired minister's house after a series of devastating earthquakes strike their hometown, he and his wife welcome all into their home, as if they were expecting them.

After all the people have gathered in his home the minister warns them that they must leave Charlotte and go further inland because the ocean will soon flood.

The minister and a young boy named Dylan become close as the days pass on the long and sometimes difficult journey. Dylan is slowly and reluctantly becoming the leader of the group.

When they arrive in a new community and join with other survivors, the scope of the damage to the earth is realized and the people find themselves at the center of the final war, the war between heaven and hell.

This new community must do everything they can to defend themselves from the onslaught of Satan's army.

In-between battles, Dylan struggles with his unrealized love of Sarah and the battles he faces with his own inner demons as well as the demons that visit him at his weakest moments, tempting him to turn on those he swore to protect.
