Synopsis

THE ARCHITECT OF THE IMPOSSIBLE
Book 2 of The Infinite Tapestry Series

For four hundred years, the angel Hadraniel has watched from the Archive's lower gallery, cataloguing silence. Kingdoms have risen and been carried off in chains. Prophecies have waited, threaded along the golden wall like a river with nowhere to go. Then, on an ordinary morning, everything starts again.

Gabriel's been sent. To Nazareth. To a girl.

Hadraniel is not sent to intervene this time - only to witness. Every hour of it, "the unremarkable ones along with the others," from a girl's trembling yes in a hill-country kitchen to a carpenter's costly choosing, from a star that will not stop moving to a cross he cannot look away from and a stone rolled back from an empty tomb.

He has filed prophecies for centuries without understanding their weight. Now he watches the weight arrive - in a manger, in thirty hidden years, in twelve unimpressive men handed the whole of the plan, in a love that empties itself completely and holds nothing back.

The Architect of the Impossible retells the story at the centre of everything through the eyes of an archivist who has waited longer than memory for a promise to move - and who is about to learn that some things cannot be catalogued from a safe distance. They have to be lived through, all the way to the end.

He thought he understood the Thread of Promise.

He was about to learn what it costs to become our saviour.
