Publisher's summary
Jeff Nebeker-Johnson, the author of Darkness: A Slave's Story, delivers his first work of science fiction after years of writing historical fiction about slavery. Sick Day is not a departure from the important work of educating others about the horrors of slavery, but a warning to not repeat the cycle by giving up freedom for security.

First, the stars in the Milkey Way go dark. Then everyone on earth hears in their minds a very real voice speaking in their own language, dialect, and gender at the precise same time: ''Judgment of the inhabitants of the planet Earth will be held in five days. Please prepare yourselves for the final examination and departure. That is all". Humanity prepares for the rapture. But wait, fate takes a turn.
