    About this audiobook

    Bizarre Encounter Initiates Extreme Spiritual Battle  Dylan Foster's carefully constructed, orderly world begins to fray, thread by thread, the day the eyes of hell turn upon her. After a chance encounter with a creepy, sickly looking stranger, her days become punctuated with disturbing, inexplicable events. Desperate for answers, Dylan seeks not only to extricate herself from the nightmare, but to separate the spiritual from the earthly, friend from foe, angel from devil, good from evil. She's smack in the eye of the battle with only God-issued spiritual armor and her own wits to protect her.  I saw the first fly alight on the edge of my plate during supper. This was no ordinary fly. It was huge. The size of a small Volkswagen. I could have painted daisies on it and sold rides to small children.  Hotter than the eyes of hell...  School is back in session, but for psychology professor Dylan Foster, the promise of a new semester is dying in the heat of the late Texas summer. First, there is the bizarre encounter with a ghastly pale stranger. Then her mother's engagement ring turns up-the same ring that was buried with her mother two years before.  Soon, Dylan's carefully ordered world is unraveling, one thread at a time. A former patient accuses her of impropriety, putting her career in jeopardy. A suicide plunges her deeper into shadow. Relationships with colleagues start to crumble. And then there are those flies in her house...  Dylan Foster is about to get a crash course in spiritual warfare-and a glimpse of her own small but significant role in a vast eternal conflict. But when the dust settles, will anything be left of her life as she knows it?

      Dylan Foster is a phychology professor who also works at the local clinic, helping students deal with their problems. While at a faculty picnic, Dylan meets Peter Terry, an ashen, whisper thin bald man, whom she takes to be a cancer patient. His conversation with her gives her the willies, and when he finally turns to leave she notices a hugh gash on his back, exposing bone and muscle. When she returns to the picnic she discovers that all of the faculty have been presented with expensive, but anonymous, gifts. She receives a necklace, one that she finds very pretty and would have bought for herself.When Dylan returns to her truck at the end of the day she finds another gift, in a similar box. It’s her mother’s wedding ring. The same ring that should currently be on her mother’s finger, six feet under ground. Dylan then takes the necklace and, truly creeped out, throws it into the lake and drives home. When she arrives, she finds hanging from her doorknob, “that necklace, still dripping with the cold water of Barton Springs.” So ends chapter one.For a first time author, Melanie Wells has written a gripping tale, one that will not let you go. It deals specifically with the reality of angels and demons in our world, and the war that we may not always see. She also tackles the effects of that war, both positive and negative. While there are questions that seem to be left unanswered, it seems to me that the answers just aren’t obvious. Melanie doens’t come out and say, “This is the answer to that little conundrum on page 47…” but she does weave the answers into the story. There were some that I didn’t discover until after I’d finished the book and thought about it, but they were there. I eagerly await her newest book, out in just a few months.I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes to read Christian suspense. Although, you may want to sleep with the lights on for a few nights!

      Christian fiction for people who don't like Christian fiction. Wells has a cut-the-bull attitude, and so does her main character, psychology professor Dylan Foster (female) who finds her life being troubled by demonic activity. Dylan is unladylike, often sarcastic, and an intelligent hard-line investigator. Wells writes tightly and in a totally non-preachy way. Even if you don't buy the existence of demons, the story is eerie and hard to put down and the character won't annoy you!

      I absolutely devoured this book. What I want to share is how much I enjoyed this book. I enjoyed it so much I took it with me to the Raven Cafe on Saturday. I squeezed in reading while my husband took his contacts out before bed. Basically, if I could read When the Day of Evil Comes even for a moment, I did it. Truly I only put the book down in order to not be rude. The story introduces us to Dr. Dylan Foster who is a psychology professor at SMU. Dr. Foster sounds like the kind of woman I would have aspired to be when I was growing up. She is strong, well educated, beautiful, and has direction. Dylan's main flaw might be that she is a bit disconnected from those around her. She seems to have few close ties. Life may be slightly predictable and a bit boring for Dylan, but that changes rather quickly after an afternoon picnic with her colleagues at a lake.From a meeting with a strange and rather creepy individual, Dylan finds herself on a path to possible personal destruction. Her usually ordered life is slowly coming unraveled with her professional ethics being questioned and her very career being put in jeopardy. Worse still she seems to be under some sort of spiritual attack, and that is far more difficult to get ahead of when you are accustomed to an orderly life where the rules are usually followed and most things are easily explained.This story had plenty of edge and mystery to keep me reading. It contained characters that were entirely realistic and believable. This is a book that kept me actively engaged from the very first chapter. Seriously, I did not want to put this down. There were some questions in the story that kind of left things up to the reader, but that could be so you can find out more in the other books in the series. Melanie Wells took me on a very interesting ride that I enjoyed thoroughly. I look forward to reading the second book "Soul Hunter" this week, and if it is anything like the first, I will be devouring "My Soul To Keep" the week after.

      Good as an edgy inspirational.
