Abstract
A country without a president. A world without a leader. Three men poised on the brink of supreme power. When people choose tyranny over chaos, no place on earth is safe.
His breathing came in short, racing puffs, and Pope Xavier clutched his heart as though it might fail. Fortunately it had only been a dream.
"My little father?" a sweet voice asked, and his old heart skipped a beat. "Blessed Mother of God," he whispered in Latin as he slid from the bed and onto his knees. "Tonus tuus. I am yours."
******
Gavin grinned. He gripped Jack hard with both hands and jostled him. Jack began to wail, and Gavin laughed. "It is time for a ceremony that has been out of practice for a few thousand years. This child belongs to Molech now. He is a gift from me. With him, I will secure Molech's favor. Take the stones you have gathered and build a table, an altar, if you will, and pile brush wood on top of it.

Midnight Hour is the heart-thumping sequel to Céleste perrino Walker and Eric Stoffle's Eleventh Hour - an end time drama that reads like today's headlines. Things that once seemed preposterous become the common fare of TV talk shows and news magazines. As you read, remind yourself that this is just a story. Then ask yourself two questions: For how long? and... who will be able to stand?
