Description

Conrad Boyd is marrying the woman of his dreams. It is the best day of his life... and also the worst. For at the exact moment the bride and groom are exchanging their vows, Conrad's closest friend Hunter Brautigan is skipping the wedding so he can murder sixteen people. What follows this awful day is a maddening cycle of disruptions-the death of Conrad's father, the state execution of Hunter, and an inevitable soul-shattering divorce-that drive Conrad into isolation and depression. It is here in his most outcast state that Conrad meets Annaliese, a stunning French beauty who tumbles out of cyberspace and steals his heart via social media. His passion reawakened, Conrad starts looking for purpose, traveling to Africa as a volunteer in war-torn Konghali. But after a near-death experience in the jungle, Conrad throws logic out the window and flies to Paris to meet Annaliese for a weekend of passion and romance. His hope is that this will awaken him back to life... Little does he know that life is full of lies. All around him, mean demons slither in the shadows, tracking his every move. And as Conrad meanders about, drifting on the winds of change, the darkness is ever crouching at his heels, gathering strength to catch him at his most vulnerable moment...
