THE BOOK

 

 

THE BLURB

Who am I? 
My name is Christy Snow. I'm seventeen and I'm about to die. 
I'm buried in a coffin under tons of concrete. No one knows where I am. My heart sounds like a monster with clobber feet, running straight toward me. I'm lying on my back, soaked with sweat from the hair on my head to the soles of my feet. My hands and feet won't stop shaking.
Some will say that I m not really here. Some will say I'm delusional. Some will say that I don t even exist. But who are they? I'm the one buried in a grave. 
My name is Christy Snow. I'm seventeen. I'm about to die. 
So who are you? 

 

THE FIRST LINE

My heart sounds like a monster with clobber feet, running straight toward me.

 

 

THE AUTHOR

 

TED DEKKER is a New York Times bestselling thriller author. Heralded as a “master of suspense” by Library Journal, Dekker has sold millions worldwide, establishing himself as one of the most widely recognized author brands.

He began his career writing fantasy novels that explored spirituality (Black, Red and White) and has since become a major force in the mainstream fiction arena with his recent thrillers, Adam, Thr3e, Skin, Obsessed, BoneMan's Daughters, which landed in the #10 on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list in 2009, and The Bride Collector. Dekker has been honored with a Christy Award as well as a Gold Medallion Award for Best Fiction. Thr3e and his novel House became feature films.

Dekker was born to missionaries and grew up among cannibals of Indonesia, and his peculiar upbringing gives him a unique perspective outside the cultural bubble, allowing him the freedom to share provocative insights in his fiction. After leaving Indonesia, Dekker graduated from a multi-cultural high school and took up permanent residence in the United States, earning his B.A. in philosophy and religion, and then went into business. In the early nineties, Dekker decided to pursue his desire to write fiction, selling his company, moving his family to the mountains of western Colorado, and writing full-time.

He resides in Austin, Texas with his wife and children. You can find him at Teddekker.com and Facebook.com/teddekker.
