Publisher Description
Welcome to Lily Dale, New York . . . a sleepy summer resort, home to a population of psychics, and the place where Julia Garrity and Kristin Shuttleworth formed a fast friendship broken only by death.
Ten Summer Street is no ordinary house. It was there, fifteen years ago, that Kristin saw something on a Halloween night that would haunt her until the end of her days. Since then, Julia has watched both Kristin and her mother fall prey to whomever—or whatever—lurks there.
Now Kristin's blind six-year-old daughter, Dulcie, has come to live in Lily Dale—at Ten Summer Street. Appointing herself protector, Julia is determined to coax the secrets of the house out into the light, to discover what the little girl "sees" roaming its halls . . . before the murderous force residing there makes them both its next victims.

"This is my favorite Ted Dekker novel so far. The plot is fast-paced and suspenseful. Basically it'a about a genius college student who suddenly develops the ability to see multiple potential futures. He can choose which future will become a reality based on the decisions he makes, but he can only see a limited amount of time into the future. This book is a great suspense story, but also contains insightful thoughts on theological topics like free will and predestination."

" This book was GREAT. Ted Dekker is the one of the greatest authors of all time! If you like action/adventure books you should read this one. "
— Will, 2/5/2014 -
" Great story and sort of interesting view on the whole "does God exist" thing. "
— Jml067, 1/30/2014 -
" Love Dekker fantasy, but I just a cannot get into his "thrillers." Still, this was the best of the thrillers I've picked up so far. "
— Pauline, 1/29/2014 -
" Interesting book and premise. It is fast-action. "
— Jenni, 1/20/2014 -
" I wasn't sure if I'd like this book during the first few chapters, but I couldn't put it down for the last few chapters. Really makes you think about faith and prayer. A unique perspective. Very well written, of course. "
— Janell, 1/18/2014 -
" It was very intriguing. I think it really tests your faith in God. Somewhat sad, too, because...well, I won't ruin the book for you! Very good, though. "
— Esther, 1/18/2014 -
" I was SO not excited to read this book when my Book Club picked it. I wasn't sure that I'd be able to get into it. I was happily surprised. I really liked the way the author wrote, and he made unbelievable events real with ease. The topics presented are very intriguing. I ended up loving it. "
— Tonya, 1/17/2014 -
" My introduction to Dekker's work. An instant favorite, and still my top novel by him. He nails the thriller aspect and he uses the scifi future possibilities to open a thoughtful discussion on free will and God's ultimate control. "
— RA, 1/6/2014 -
" The version I read was "Blink of an Eye" very captivating and a page turner. "
— Alyssa, 1/1/2014 -
" I've read it twice and loved it both times! Ted Dekker always grabs my attention. "
— Amanda, 12/29/2013 -
" A revision of Dekker earlier "Blink." My second favorite Dekker book. What happens when a man who can see the future kidnaps a princess on the run? You'd be surprised. "
— Blake, 12/21/2013 -
" My book club read this in May.It was ok. There was a lot of action, but in the end, it was a love story. That is not a bad thing though. "
— Rebecca, 12/11/2013 -
" WOW!!!! A fast paced intellectual thriller with the gospel embedded within the laws of high energy physics. Brilliantly written! "
— Cynthia, 12/9/2013 -
" Not my favorite Ted Dekker book, but still a rather gripping read. "
— Georgie, 12/1/2013 -
" My first Ted Dekker book, the one that solidified my views of free-will and pre-determinism. "
— Brittany, 11/17/2013 -
" Very exciting. Not an allegory or something that prompts your faith like Black, Red and White but a great time and a worthwhile purchase. "
— Hilarey, 11/6/2013 -
" What an adventure! This surpassed "Thr3e" as my favorite Dekker book. Very captivating, an enjoyable yet make-you-think plot, and leaves with a satisfying conclusion on its spiritual arguments. "
— Erin, 11/6/2013 -
" I enjoyed this book. I did like The Circle Trilogy better, but I think this one will appeal to a greater audience. This one is not as glaringly "Christian" as those books are, though God does play a large role. I've heard that this is being made into a movie. I'll definitely go see it. "
— Kristi, 10/26/2013 -
" Still my favourite Dekker book, a fun-filled ride with some thought provoking 'bumps' along the way. "
— Wale, 10/26/2013 -
" A captivating plot, and a thought provoking concept. Thoroughly recommended. "
— Pete, 9/16/2013 -
" Awesome read! Dekker does it again! This is a great book! "
— Kelly, 8/31/2013 -
" I wouldn't go so far to say I really liked it, there was something about this book that made you want to read more though. The religion part annoyed my, maybe it shouldn't have.. But it did. Lol. & I'll have to read more by him bc I have a couple other books by him! "
— Ariel, 8/11/2013 -
" Quick read, not the highest quality writing (he's no shakespeare), but brings up some thoughtful similarity/difference between the God of Islam and the God of Christianity. "
— Jean, 7/30/2013 -
" I loved this book! Kudos for Ted Dekker!!!! "
— Caitlynn, 4/24/2013 -
" Some of it was enjoyable, but some of it seemed sappy. I liked the idea of the book and the story, but the characters need to be more believable. "
— Cindy, 4/21/2013 -
" It's like reading an episode of 24! "
— Cv, 3/27/2013 -
" I really enjoyed this book because it was fast-paced, had romance, was easy to read, suspenseful and I just couldn't put it down. I just wish we knew what went down at Berkley after Seth went to save Miriam during the awards ceremony. I think it'd be great if there was a sequel. "
