Rapture: Or, Satan Wins Again: A Contemporary Novel

Rapture: Or, Satan Wins Again is a sarcastic, irreverent riff on the Christian concept of an end-time event, where all believers will rise into heaven; this event precedes the Second Coming.This contemporary thriller begins in Manhattan, with the NYC Police and FBI investigating a rash of murders. Meanwhile, a retired CEO, and Romania's UN Ambassador (and a generous contributor to the US president's reelection campaigns), was on his way to a critical meeting. At the same time, people begin disappearing. The Nation is in ruin, buildings are shuttered, and NYC is bombed.In the midst of this chaos, the Ambassador delivers a stirring speech at the UN; he then moves to Washington, D.C. as the President's confidant, and they travel to Jerusalem and Rome in search of answers. As it turns out, the UN Ambassador is actually the Antichrist. Once his full life-history is revealed, the quick-paced events will keep the reader glued to the book until the surprise conclusion.
