The Author on Devil Whispers: Life is actually about one, overarching issue – influence. Or, said another way, it is about the power to control our reality in order to fashion it into what we want it to be. And this struggle to control animates both the physical and the metaphysical dimension of life. So, this issue of influence and control is the engine which moves us all, whether God, man, or devil.
It is this issue which gives rise to that long running war between Good and Evil, the Light and the Darkness. And, indeed, this war yet impacts every human life, every day. Lately, we tend to assign its impacts to fate, or randomness, or mere human effect. But, the truer explanation lies far beyond those simplistic and very limited explanations.
So, Devil Whispers seeks to go there, to the less visible, but more sophisticated and more accurate view of humanity’s day to day life fabric. It does this by seamlessly marrying a disturbing, but still very plausible fiction story line to the high-stakes, non-fiction struggle which truly is mankind’s universal story.
What then emerges in the readers psyche is a convincing, but less secure and more consequential view of life. It is a picture intentionally designed to confront the delusional snooze of the modern Church and the arrogant hard-edge of the secular world – to shake both to their senses. Time will tell.
