The Prophet of Queens

The world hasn't heard from a true prophet in 2,000 years. So why now? And why this guy? Scotty Butterfield is a recluse. A college dropout clinging to a dead-end job and a rundown sublet in New York City, spending his nights lost in videogames. When suddenly he begins to receive emails from someone calling himself a "Messenger of the Lord," warning of imminent death and destruction in the city. An obvious scam. Yet the predictions bear out. Horrified, Scotty fears he's caught up in some terrorist plot, only to realize the disasters are impossible for any human to foresee or stage—caused by uncontrollable forces of nature. Acts of God. Just as the Messenger claims. Is Scotty going nuts, or could these prophecies truly be divine? Thrust wide-eyed onto the national stage, he will confront a paradox unlike anything the world has ever known, with the future of humanity hanging in the balance . . . The Prophet of Queens is a mind-bending, genre-bending suspense thriller. A mad ride of twists and turns to challenge your sanity, keep you guessing, and reward you with a powerful climax you will never see coming. High praise from top reviewers: “Intense.
