Heaven has broken its two-millennium silence and spoken in a surprising and undeniable way, saying to those who are believers, members of the body of Christ, that this will be their last week on earth. Sunday is the last day. This is Monday. This morning we meet Leila, our heroine, and find that she is dealing with a different sort of revelation. Like Most people, she has no connection with the Christian community, but what she discovers about herself is a happier thing than the Rapture announcement is to some believers. How can this be? It turns out that not every believer is a believer, and many of those who are believers cannot find it within themselves to be perfectly happy about moving to heaven on such short notice. No one was prepared for this. The affairs of the world can be very sticky, and the trouble and pain promised to those left behind turn out to be less motivating than it was previously thought. It will be later in the week when Leila learns about this. What she does in the meantime should be no surprise because her story has definite parallels to a biblical story that is well known. This is the second book in The Day and the Hour series. It can be read apart from the previous volume which is summarized here in the introduction.
