FOR FANS OF LEFT BEHIND -The Scriptures is a thrilling debut about the end of the world following a nuclear attack on New York.
It is the end of days.
A nuclear strike hits New York
. Alfie, a young black male, survives but with
no memory
of what has happened. The only thing he can remember with any clarity is how to play his guitar and a few snatches of old blues and folk songs.
Another survivor, Meg, has taken refuge in the hills of Vermont, and she, too, is the victim of near
absolute amnesia
. Her only hope is to
survive
these darkest of days. Across the country, a
prophet called John
is reveling in the fallout of chaos that accompanies the strike and is calling for
Judgment Day
against sinners, all while
civilization burns around him
. This is the final battle. Alfie and Meg don't know it, but they have a grim destiny. They must stand together and
defeat the Great Beast
with
only their faith to shield them
. Can they build a
New Jerusalem from the ruins of the White House
?
