Somewhere in the world, a genius builds a machine to bring mankind
closer to God. Somewhere in time, another genius builds a cathedral
with a mind of its own. Somewhere on the road, three searchers race
a serial killer to find the man with the key to salvation. It takes
the sound and fury of Day 9 to bring them all together. If God took
six days to make the world and rested on Day 7, humanity has spent
Day 8 tearing it all apart. Everything changes on Day 9, when we
get it right at any cost...or lose everything. On Day 9, a
God's-eye view of the world collides with the visions of a living,
breathing cathedral in a war between the delusions of yesterday and
the dreams of tomorrow. A war between beauty and mediocrity...love
and hate...madness and sanity...life and death. If the unlikely
heroes in the heart of the storm can't face down their own demons,
the deepest secrets of maniacs and murderers could bring the hope
of the future crashing down forever. Don't miss this edgy,
exciting, surprising, and thought-provoking thriller in the
tradition of Tim Burton, the Coen Brothers, Thomas Pynchon, and
Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. It's the latest novel from award-winning
storyteller Robert T. Jeschonek, a master of unique and unexpected
fiction that packs a punch. Reviews "Robert Jeschonek is the
literary love child of Tim Burton and Neil Gaiman--his fiction is
cutting edge, original, and pulsing with dark and fantastical life.
His stories suck me in and refuse to let me go until the last page,
even as his characters are busy stealing my heart." - Adrian
Phoenix, critically acclaimed author of The Maker's Song series and
Black Dust Mambo ..".Robert Jeschonek is a towering talent..." -
