What if the storm chasing you isn’t the one outside… but the one within?
Set in the shadow-soaked streets of New Orleans, Intercessor is a gripping faith-infused thriller that blends supernatural suspense with profound spiritual reflection.
Jim Hampton is a burned-out lawyer who walks away from his high-stakes career in search of peace. Drawn to the mystique of the Crescent City, he hopes distance will quiet his doubts and regrets. Instead, as a tropical storm intensifies into a devastating hurricane, Jim finds himself trapped in a far more dangerous tempest—one filled with demonic forces, divine intervention, and a battle for his soul.
Guided by the enigmatic bartender Myriam, Jim is forced to confront his lapsed Catholic faith amid blackouts, chases through the French Quarter, and encounters that defy logic and reason. As darkness closes in and evil tightens its grip, Jim must decide whether redemption is truly possible—or if some storms are meant to destroy.
Near the novel’s stunning climax, a miraculous event inspired by the legendary “dancing sun” at Fatima transforms terror into revelation, reminding readers that grace can break through even the deepest despair.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
● Faith-driven thrillers with spiritual depth
● Supernatural suspense rooted in real-world belief
● Stories of redemption, miracles, and personal awakening
● Atmospheric settings rich with culture and mystery
Intercessor is more than a thriller—it’s a powerful reminder that in life’s darkest moments, hope may arrive in ways we least expect.

About the Author
Intercessor is his debut novel, inspired by visits to New Orleans and a fascination with the city’s rich culture, history, and spiritual contrasts. His writing journey began as a deeply personal exploration of life’s harder questions—particularly around belief, purpose, and grace—and evolved over several years into a gripping supernatural thriller shaped by thoughtful revision and early reader feedback.
When he’s not practicing law or writing, John enjoys a wide range of hands-on pursuits, including beekeeping, bonsai cultivation, growing tobacco and rolling his own cigars, and cooking—especially Cajun and Creole cuisine. These passions reflect the same patience, craftsmanship, and respect for tradition that inform his storytelling.
