Enter a world where nothing is what it seems. Where your closest friend could be your greatest enemy.
Seminary student Kevin Parson is driving his car late one summer day when, suddenly, his cell phone rings. A man who identifies himself as Slater tells him: "You have exactly three minutes to confess your sin to the world. Refuse, and the car you're driving will blow sky high." Kevin panics. Who would make such a call? What sin? Kevin ditches the car and precisely three minutes later, a massive explosion sets his world on a collision course with madness.
A gripping story of the struggle between good and evil, and the power of God over sin.
