Mercury Rests

After foiling another attempt by the Prince of Darkness to destroy the universe, renegade angel Mercury has gone missing; he's been hurled into the future to witness a never-ending game of ping-pong between Job and Cain as they await the end of the world. Meanwhile, in the present day, jaded religion reporter Christine Temetri and mild-mannered forensic analyst Jacob Slater aren't waiting for the end; they?re determined to prevent it. Once again, it's the two of them against Lucifer ? except this time he's upped his game. No longer content with plotting against humans, he's determined to bring the apocalypse straight to the pearly gates. Temetri and Slater quickly realize that this battle is out of their league, so they?ll need Mercury's help to burn the devil. But will their angel ally be able to find his way back to them, or will the seemingly inevitable creep of the End Times damn them all? Mercury Rests concludes the epic and explosive romp of Robert Kroese's Mercury trilogy.
