John Revele is a cop in Baltimore, lost inside the human condition. His passion for retribution of the innocent drives him to abandon all reason and rise up to battle evil on the streets in a vigilante blitz. However, more may be going on in the spectrum of good and evil than he realized. Supernatural forces are at play and God and the devil agree to a rematch for the souls of humanity. When a brilliant physicist births Time-Travel, the space-time continuum is disturbed, creating an alternate reality in which history shifts. Timelines are reset, and a series of Biblical events begin again, in our modern world... From street thugs, to mob kingpins, sex traffickers and demonic forces, Revele brings his fight full force, only to realize there is a much bigger war going on. In the face of true evil, he will have to defeat his greatest nemesis--himself--in order to truly be ready for the next stage of the fight...
Synopsis
One of the prominent concepts in this book is the idea that there is an unseen sense of discontentment that exists within each of our souls--"there is something wrong with the world!" A feeling that we all inevitably fall victim to. Among my hero complex, this is also something I struggled with as I transitioned through adolescence. As a result I both loved and hated the world. Two opposing forces were, and still are in some ways, at conflict with each other constantly. Many of these concepts and themes are discussed at length throughout the book. I really wanted the book to be a commentary on this over-lying sense that our world is sick and needs saving; That despite all the evil and corruption, it's also a beautiful place and that human life is worth saving...

The world can be devastating at times. We live in the fold of a glorious sadness. An epic tragedy of misfortunes.
A marvellous combination of beauty and horror. The grand magnificence!
Have you ever wondered what the world would be like if things happened differently? If time were a rope, stretched out in long, flat line and someone came along and flicked their wrist while holding onto the end of it...the rope would wave, and all the events of history would fling into open and empty space. How would the world now be impacted, when all of those events came back down and landed on different points in the timeline? World War II happening in the colonial times, the Titanic never sinking and making it to shore--but the grander vessel they built after that sinking instead, the Wild West in modern times...the life and death of Christ happening in the not too distant future...not time travel, but a time shuffle.
One man's journey through the proverbial 'human condition' and his attempts at trying to right the wrongs of our world,
will leave you on the edge of your seat and have you turning page after page!
