Description
A beautifully written, page turning thriller . . .
The little girl cupped her hands and whispered almost inaudibly into her father’s ear. “The Pestilence is coming. Everybody here is going to die.”
A mysterious electrical phenomenon rolls above the cities of the world. The lightning which comes from the east, shines as far as the west, turning night into day.
Two brothers of the lightning, Samuel Srour and Victor Pierre Chaput are gifted powers by the storm. Their paths intertwined, with enemies on all sides.
Samuel Srour has unwittingly started a revolution. His Healed walk the Earth. Free of injury, sickness and disease, but powerful forces stand in his way and the Pestilence is drawing ever closer.

Advance Praise
"Smart, perceptive and thought-provoking. An excellent debut novel from an author with a bright future." by James Pincus
"Fascinating and captivating book . . . After the electrifying start, you're lulled into a cosy fable which has you pondering about humanity and its future whilst still retaining an almost incongruent thriller quality. The manifold threads dramatically and shockingly come together and I am looking forward to this story's evolution." by Apurva Vyas
