Synopsis God is dead and has fallen into the sea, says the angel Raphael to Anthony Van Horne on his 50th birthday. Van Horne must captain the ship that hauls God's corpse through the sea to the Arctic, where it will be preserved in shark-free waters at sub-zero temperatures. Along the way, he must deal with a mutinous crew, an assortment of shady hucksters, and constant threats of sabotage.

Publisher's Note The discovery of God's corpse in the mid-Atlantic poses a menace to navigation and to faith. Charged with captaining a supertanker as it tows the two-mile long corpse northward to the Arctic so that it can be preserved, Anthony Van Horne must contend with sabotage (both natural and spiritual) and mutiny along the way. An allegorical tale certain to entertain and provoke.
