Tell No Man

4.4/5 ( ratings)

When Maddie Smith, a single Mormon mother, receives a foreclosure notice, she begins looking for a new home. While her sons Brandon and David stay home, Maddie explores an old sandstone house in Blackhawk, Utah. The house, however, has never really been empty. There’s a painting Maddie shouldn’t have seen and something else alive in the house. Something that goes home with her.
Mormons don’t practice exorcisms like the Catholics do, but Maddie’s bishop, Blaine Griffen, and his former mission companion, Rey Montoya, saw something like this in 1973. Forty-five years ago, they failed to save a young woman from Hell. Now, they have a second chance.
It will take more than just praying to save Maddie and her sons. The demon wants more than just her. Can Griffen and Montoya do what needs done, including going against one of the foundations of their priesthood authority, when the demon comes for twelve-year-old Brandon next?
Brandon, meanwhile, faces a more direct threat. Three men who serve the entity in the old house have been watching. They know he’s there and will do everything they can to stop Brandon from saving his mother and discovering the secret they left in the basement: a sacrifice to the darkness they serve.
The strength of a single mother tested, the faith of devoted authorities challenged, the love of sons for their mothers confronted. And a biblical command to TELL NO MAN what has occurred, lest they not believe.
