Jake McCluskie is back... last time, he was the Repairman, and he fixed Time and helped flush a demon back to Oblivion. This time, McCluskie is the Redeemer. He must redeem three souls and find Hell's Codes for the Angel of Death. In order to do that, he has to go to Oblivion--into his enemy's cage. No wonder the Redeemer always dies. Satan straightened up in the chair and reached into his coat pocket. "Oh, I almost forgot. As promised, I read your ghost story book." In his hand he held a hard cover edition of my second book entitled: Limbo, Mississippi: A Ghost Story. The plastic cover book jacket had a library tag. "You borrowed it?" I asked. "From the library?" He grinned. "Okay, let's call it borrowed." "Aw, c'mon man, for the love of God, you're an archangel, would it kill you to break open your wallet and buy a copy?" "You're rich enough, McCluskie," he said, laughing. "Now, for the review." He made a sour face. "It was okay, nothing special, but okay. A passing grade." He tapped the book with a finger. "The problem is, your story is better than your writing. Hopefully, one day the writing will catch up." "Maybe you'll like my time travel book better. It's entitled: Broken Time. It just came out." He turned up his nose. "I don't know, McCluskie. One of your books is enough for me." "You should give this one a chance. The grade ten English classes at Rockaway High School will be reading it this semester." "Really?" he questioned, his smile beaming. "I can't believe it. Jacob McCluskie, part of modern literature." He shook his head, still smiling. "The great ones are turning over in their graves." "Thanks for your continued support." "Anytime," he said, laughing...
Society is crumbling before Jake McCluskie's eyes. A desperate tension fills the streets as frightened people attempt to flee. The clock is ticking down to zero, but Jake has already lost all hope. As an extinction-class meteorite rockets toward Earth, Jake knows the end is near. But he is going nowhere-or so he thinks. Jake, a one-time promising author and now full-time bus driver, is still grieving and angry after the murder of his wife three years ago.

With crazed killers lurking everywhere, Jake embarks on a heart-pounding race through the empty streets of Queens, New York, in search of the Timekeeper-the only one who can send him back to September of 1938, when a college student important to the flow of time was brutally murdered during a violent hurricane. Now only time will tell if Jake can survive long enough to get there. In this science fiction thriller, it is up to one man to find the Timekeeper and set things right before mankind disappears forever.

Every major city has a secret police force, a select few that operate without rules. New York City is no exception and Dennis McNeil is no ordinary detective. A member of the Chief's unit, Mac is currently on paid leave with no plans to return. But the Chief wants him back in the "game"-where he belongs-and throws him a case he can't refuse. After all, how can anyone say "No" to a dying child? And that's what's happening to Moon Zollner. Dying of leukemia, Moon needs a stem cell transplant from a relative to survive. His only known relative is his mother, a junkie whore lost to the streets. She'll be hard to find, and as Mac and his partner soon learn, they're not the only ones looking for her. But for Moon's sake, they better find her first. So the clock is ticking. And that's why, in and beneath the streets of New York, it's going down ugly.
