The Broken Window (Threshold Series)
The strong third title in Kinde’s Threshold series sees a more mature 15-year-old Prissie Pomeroy battling the forces of good and evil with some angelic help and a healthy dose of adventure. Apart from being able to see real angels, Prissie’s life is otherwise typical of a young Christian teen dealing with school, boys, friends, family, and faith. But now the demonic horde of the Deep might be coming to destroy Prissie’s angel friends, and her own courage and resilience will be needed in the face of this deadly new threat. Prissie’s daily life at school suffers as her attention is distracted by the supernatural goings-on, and her friendships become strained as typical school gossip and rumors threaten to suck her into the more superficial dilemmas of teenagers. Prissie attempts to maintain focus by sharing her family’s holiday traditions with guardian angel Koji, but everything important to her will be tested as the story unfolds.
