Renny Jacobson thought he was just another overworked, underpaid associate clawing his way up the legal ladder--until his father's death uncovers a secret inheritance tied to a shadowy society. What begins as the promise of wealth and prestige quickly unravels into a chilling battle with spiritual forces that have ruled his bloodline for over a century. As Renny is drawn deeper into the grip of this generational curse, migraines, mysterious deaths, and unsettling coincidences plague his life--until a faithful few begin praying for his deliverance. With the help of Jo Johnstone, a strong believer with secrets of her own, Renny begins to see that this isn't just a legal dilemma or a moral crossroads--it's spiritual war. In a tale filled with suspense, supernatural insight, and soul-stirring truth, The List explores the consequences of generational sin, the power of prayer, and the cost of surrendering control to a God who never stops pursuing His people. Step into a world where legacies collide and darkness fights to remain hidden--but the power of God still reigns.
