The alchemist John Reinhardt devises a ritual to summon Azrael, the Angel of Death, and to render all of mankind immortal. He succeeds, if only for 60 seconds--long enough to save thousands from the terrible fire that ensues. But, he pays a terrible price. Forced to assume Azrael's mantle, Reinhardt serves a wrathful and nameless Goddess who creates and destroys worlds at a whim. And, the Earth's time has come. A cult of Goddess worship has overtaken the world and counts down to a spiritual unification. But, Reinhardt knows the truth. To save the human race, he defies Her will and journeys to Earth in search of Raven D'Arc--a young woman in New Orleans who believes his story, and the miracle he performed. Only she can help him to recreate the Deathless Minute and save the world. But, the Goddess will not rest. Her agents pursue them in a race against time as Raven is faced with the ultimate decision.
