The Indwelling, book number seven in the best-selling Left Behind series, marks the beginning of the second half of the seven year Tribulation period. The question of who killed Nicolae at the end of book number six, Assassins, will be answered. Readers will experience the horrors of God's judgment and the hope of salvation as they follow Rayford, Buck, Chloe, and the rest of the Tribulation Force in heart-stopping action.

This book begins soon after Nicolae Carpathia is assassinated, and tells more on the end of the Gala, the midpoint of the Tribulation and the opening of the Great Tribulation. The members of the Tribulation Force -- just three in the safe house and the rest scattered about the globe -- face their most dangerous challenges. Following the assassination of the Antichrist, some are murder suspects; others test the precarious line between subversion and being revealed. Rayford Steele must escape Israel. Buck Williams must find a friend. Chloe Steele Williams despairs for her life and the life of her baby. Tsion Ben-Judah becomes a man who dreams dreams. Meanwhile, David, Annie, Mac, and Abdullah live life on the edge, toiling inside the very lair of the evil one, always a breath away from lives as fugitives. All over the news, reporters announce that Rayford Steele is Nicolae Carpathia's assassin, but Buck soon learns the truth. The world mourns the loss of a world leader until events at Nicolae's funeral bring all mourning to an end. Is the safe house really safe anymore? Is a Trib Force member guilty of murder? Who is the next comrade to die? Has their help come from too unlikely a source? - Publisher.
