In a world devoid of prophetic voices for over two millennia, the narrative explores the profound implications of this silence. The story delves into themes of faith, hope, and the human longing for divine guidance.

As they navigate their journeys, the quest for a new messenger becomes a pivotal element, challenging the status quo and igniting a spiritual awakening.
On Christmas Eve, 1999, a mysterious celestial event devastates a secret military research facility in Israel, leaving only one mute survivor who disappears into the desert. A World News Network team, in Jerusalem for a Millennium Eve special, investigates rumors of a Jordanian SCUD attack and uncovers a life-altering story involving veteran reporter Jonathan Feldman and cameraman Breck Hunter. As the year draws to a close, various messianic sects gather in religious centers, convinced the Last Days are near. At midnight on New Year's Eve, a striking young woman named Jeza appears at the Israelite Temple of the Messiah, coinciding with a violent earthquake that shakes Jerusalem and the Vatican. WNN captures the event on tape, and Jeza quickly becomes a global sensation, attracting attention from religious leaders and spawning a market for merchandise featuring her image. Despite claims of miracles and the announcement of an 11th commandment promoting gender equality, doubts arise about Jeza's true nature—whether she is a messiah, antichrist, or a failed biotech experiment. The narrative weaves in subplots involving Vatican conspiracies and cutting-edge science, challenging readers to confront their beliefs while delivering a gripping thriller.

Wird Jesa die Menschheit retten - oder ist sie die Vorbotin des Jüngsten Gerichts?»In diesem Buch gibt es so viele brandheiße Ideen, dass sich mancher Leser die Finger verbrennen wird!« Booklist
