Publisher's Synopsis
CÉLESTIAÁSuns & Daughters
By Mick Carty
What is the meaning of life... when the price of life is death?
Jake Corrie has lived most of his life in Glasgow, having experienced one tragedy after another; his mother dying just after his birth, his father and brother lost in a tragic road accident.
He returns to his Highland birthplace, planning to reunite with his childhood sweetheart, only to find her already married.
Cassandra was a Princess of Troy. Accosted by a god, ridiculed and shunned by her own people, she suffered terrible atrocities at the hands of the Greeks. How can a myth from three thousand years ago be crucial to the survival of, not only Jake, but the entire universe?
Jake is about to learn that events from the past are not what he thought they were... and his future is already out of his control. Emotions and temptations come to the surface, just as an unknown relative makes an earth-shattering move to fulfil her own ambitions.
The fate of the world hangs in the balance... and his extended family is prepared to sacrifice mankind in pursuit of their aims.
Reality, myth and legend clash as man's past sins become a weapon in a battle for the universe itself, with devastating consequences for the future of humanity. Nothing will ever be the same again.
A day of reckoning is here... but will... can humanity survive?
