Just who is the mysterious Dr. David Swanlove? Lawyer and radio talk show host Jonathan Blake finds his costly affluent Florida lifestyle threatened when a private poem of Swanlove's about the Antichrist surfaces on the Internet, and crazed religionists start calling his radio station saying, "The Antichrist is among us Armageddon and the Apocalypse are here " Burnt-out churches, an evil-minded preacher and a dead colleague of Dr. Swanlove's add to Jonathan's alarm, and he flies out to Venezuela to confront the doctor in his jungle hideaway. What happens next is unexpected, and certainly not alarming, until Jonathan and David Swanlove meet again in the 'Good Morning America' studios in Times Square... and an unwelcome visitor bursts in. End-times prophecies, apocalyptic visions and exotic locations contrast with the easy-going blandness of life in Coral Gables, Florida, in this tense but philosophically inquisitive novel about culture clash, entrenched ideas, bigotry and religious obsession. And before you condemn the villain, ask yourself, "Have I ever thought that way myself?"
