Aprašymas

Purgatory wasn't exactly where Owen thought he'd end up, but sometimes you don't quite get it right on the first go-round. Owen has spent the last twelve years somewhere between Heaven and Hell learning that lesson the hard way. But now Owen's sentence is complete, his penance done, and he's ready to meet with his caseworker, the Archangel Michael, to finally take that long-awaited trip to Paradise. But then she walks in to his life and everything changes. Mia, a burst of color cutting through the drab grey of the In-Between. She is excitement enough for Owen to delay salvation for two more weeks, and in that time, learn that he still has a long way to go before moving on.

"Desjardins unfolds his world with a light and humorous touch, exploring how love helps us survive the banal and ongoing injustices of life. -- Danielle McMannus, Manhattan Book Review

"Nick's prose comes at you like an old lover. It feels easy and familiar, yet can still seduce you with a sentence or a turn of phrase that is as exciting as fingertips stroking the back of your neck." --Gibson Grand, Author of Leave Your Money on the Dresser

"It is a rare thing for an emerging author to have a debut novel read in such a page turning, imagination capturing and exciting manner" --Richard D. Rowland, Author of Unspoken Messages
