IN THE HARBOR OF ILL WILL, BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR! In 1928, Demetri Davos discovers a mysterious crystal ball that has the power to grant him anything he asks. But when two selfish requests result in the death of innocent people, the boy realizes the terrible price that must be paid for every vain wish and resolves never to use the globe again. When the Nazis begin their march across France, though, the desperate half-Jew Demetri is forced into a life-or-death decision and has to break his vow to escape regardless of the consequences. Years later in Chicago, he is rich and happily married – but a vengeful nemesis, aware of the globe's power, now wants what he's owed. And he'll stop at nothing to get it. When his family is put in peril, Demetri is forced to pay the piper for his past ... and for wishes granted ... time after time ... after time ... From Europe to America, across the years, Phil Locascio's 'The Harbor of Ill Will' traces one good man's struggle to combat his own inadequacies and resist overwhelming temptation in a deadly moral tug of war.
