  • "Der geheimnisvolle Umschlag landet inmitten geschäftlicher Werbepost auf dem Schreibtisch von Nick Cominsky. Es ist eine Einladung zum Dinner. Doch wer ist der Absender? Obwohl er durch seine Siebzig-Stunden-Woche schon kaum Zeit für die Familie hat, will sich Nick die Überraschung nicht entgehen lassen, die seine Kollegen sich da offenbar ausgedacht haben. Als er am bewussten Abend das noble Restaurant betritt, wird er bereits erwartet. Ein vielleicht dreissigjähriger Mann im blauen Anzug erhebt sich. Der sonst so selbstbewusste wie gelangweilte Nick weiss kaum, was er sagen soll, als der ihn begrüsst: "Nick Cominsky? Hallo. Ich bin Jesus." Damit beginnt für den abgeklärten Nick ein Erlebnis, von dem er in kühnen Studententagen geträumt hätte. Allerdings scheint dieser Mann beunruhigend viel über Nicks Leben zu wissen ... David Gregory ist Koautor von zwei Sachbüchern und wird häufig als Vortrags- und Konferenzredner eingeladen. Nach einer zehnjährigen Karriere als Geschäftsmann kehrte er an die Universität zurück und studierte Religion und Kommunikationswissenschaften. Er hat als Unternehmensberater und im Verlagswesen gearbeitet sowie viele Jahre im Bereich der Erwachsenenbildung unterrichtet. Er lebt in Texas und arbeitet zur Zeit für eine gemeinnützige Organisation."

  • "The mysterious envelope arrives on Nick Cominsky's desk amid a stack of credit card applications and business-related junk mail. Although his seventy-hour workweek has already eaten into his limited family time, Nick can't pass up the opportunity to see what kind of plot his colleagues have hatched. The normally confident, cynical Nick soon finds himself thrown off-balance, drawn into an intriguing conversation with a baffling man who appears to be more than comfortable discussing everything from world religions to the existence of heaven and hell. And this man who calls himself Jesus also seems to know a disturbing amount about Nick's personal life."@en
