Publisher Description:
The world will end on Thursday, July 27, 2000. At least, that's what Reverend Beelson has told his congregation. That's why Marina and Jed and their parents have joined the rest of the Reverend's flock at a mountain retreat to await the end of the world. But this world has only just begun for Jed and Marina, two teenagers with more attitude than faith. Why should the world end now, when they've just fallen in love for the first time?
