Up Pops the Devil. What a title! The opening chapter is actually a scene with the devil reprimanding one of his workers because he failed to successfully execute the devil’s devious plan to destroy “Preacher” Winters.
Preacher, a former drug dealer, is leaving prison after serving a two-year sentence. But he is leaving a different man—he is now a truly born-again Christian man and is determined to live up to his name of ‘Preacher.’ Is it going to be easy seeing he still has to face his former drug companions? He knew he would have challenges when he got out of prison but he had no idea his first set of problems would all involve women: Tanya, his girlfriend and mother of his two sons; Loretta, his sister and right hand in the drug business; Serena, his former girlfriend who is now married to Bernard, his mentor and probation sponsor.
Tanya expects to continue living the luxurious lifestyle she had in the old days. Loretta who kept the drug business going expects him to rejoin her upon his return from prison. Serena wishes he would just disappear as she battles with whether or not to tell her husband, Bernard, about her former relationship with Preacher.
Will Preacher’s dream of a family with Tanya as his wife and their two sons become a reality? What will happen between him and Loretta? Will he and Serena keep this secret between them? Who, by the way, is the devil?
Up Pops the Devil is powerful reading that will pull you forward to its last page.
