A weapon that grieves like a mother. A debt only one man can forgive.
In the WorksA grieving novelist. A wife he lost the night he was too drunk to notice her leave for her last run. A stranger named Bob who shows up in the night with impossible knowledge and an impossible ask: that Richard is the only man alive who can stop the thing the government unleashed on his own hometown.
Richard, author of THE TATTERED BEAST, has one book to his name and nothing left to lose when he's told the Second Coming is real, that the Catholic Church and the U.S. military have spent years engineering who God will forgive, and that the man responsible for his wife's death holds the key to saving everyone else's. Five years and a locked psychiatric ward later, Richard breaks out to face a weapon that grieves like a mother and a debt only he can forgive.
By the end, no one can say for certain whether Richard stopped a monster, met God, or simply survived his own mind. Only that he chose, finally, to forgive the one man he had every right not to.
