“…a mesmerizing odyssey through nostalgia,
introspection, and unexpected encounters
that challenge the very meaning of who we are.”
“Despite misgivings, a man returns to his hometown of San Pedro, California, to attend a high school reunion. A former missionary now struggling with his faith, he finds himself in a different kind of struggle courtesy of an uncanny resemblance to Jesus himself as he’s besieged by townspeople and former classmates who variously wish to worship, seduce, or kill him.”
John O’Kane’s The Accidental Jesus is a mesmerizing odyssey through nostalgia, introspection, and unexpected encounters that challenges the very essence of who we are. Join our protagonist as he navigates the blurred lines between memory and reality, faith and doubt, and embarks on a quest that could forever change his life.

John O’Kane’s The Accidental Jesus keeps the action moving at a relentless pace as he pulls the reader deeper and deeper into a rich post-bohemian apocalypse rife with futuristic tech gurus, immovable evangelicals, a cult of modern Mary Magdalenes, and one murderous priest lurking in the shadows.

John O’Kane’s The Accidental Jesus got neurons firing in my brain that I’m certain have never fired before. As the protagonist confronts a homicidal fake priest, predator helicopters that seem to hover above him wherever he goes, an orgy in a Catholic church, and a host of otherworldly characters, he wrestles with his sense of what’s real and what’s not. As will the reader…while enjoying every moment of the journey.
