It's the last day in the life of the cult.
At 6PM, The Leader will pass out the knives and everyone in the cult will Ascend to the next level of existence.
But Matthew Barrett begins to have second thoughts. He's just a brainwashed kid trying to reclaim the ability to think for himself. He's not sure he has the will to stand up to The Leader.
Can he disrupt the careful balance that The Leader has built before it's too late?

Praise for this book
