Synopsis

Two millennia ago, the angels rebelled for the right to choose. Heaven still hasn't answered. Now the war comes home to the Kent coast, in an urban fantasy that gives fallen angels the floor.

"It's time for Heaven to become a democracy."

Since leaving his calling in the priesthood and saying goodbye to the church, Paul's life has gone from bad to worse. But now, his inability to hold down a job is the least of his problems.

He and his friends, sceptic extraordinaire Joseph and academic psychologist Lauren, are thrown headfirst into a celestial war that has raged on for two millennia. As a secret plot begins to unravel, the fate of thousands lies in their hands.

To put things right, the three of them must venture into the Heavenly Ruling Chamber alongside those who started the rebellion two thousand years ago - and survive coming face to face with the Almighty himself.

-----

The rebels only ever wanted a vote. Gabriel has been whispering about free will since the first Fall, and the Almighty has had plenty of time to rehearse His answer. Now the argument is about to spill out of Heaven and into a Broadstairs flat, where someone is late for work again. For readers who closed Paradise Lost wondering whether the wrong side won.

"I love the way Matthew turns the history of the angels on its head, and the characters are so real I was almost in tears near the end. Simply fantastic." - JR Walker, actor and author

"I was concerned as to how the writer would handle the religious aspects, but need not have worried... I sympathised greatly with the humans." - L. White, Vine Voice
