Description
Giovanni is old and he is dying. Throughout his life he has played the game extremely well. He is rich and he is powerful. His business empire spans the western and eastern world. But he is running out of time. He has attained everything that he has ever wanted, yet he lacks that which is most desirable to him – his eternal salvation. As his life is coming to an end, he finds himself alone and full of remorse. His only companion, his faithful servant, Nikos, is all that is left to him. The rest of them are all gone – dead, or enemies, or indifferent to him. He sits alone in his tower, reflecting upon his life, knowing that Death is coming for him.
The voices and the visions which had deserted him for many years have returned and he does not like what they have shown him. His only hope is to make one last deal with the Holy Spirit for forgiveness and salvation. Thus, he begins the arduous task of chronicling his life’s story, sharing with the world all the sins committed and mistakes made, and begging forgiveness from everyone he had wronged in his life. He is facing a race against time to complete his confession before he is delivered to his final judgement.
But Satan will not give up so easily.
