Synopsis "The Devils Door"

Owen O'Brian has spent his career teaching two subjects nobody expects to share a syllabus: theoretical physics and the literature of the end of the world. He has never once been asked a serious question by anyone in government. That changes at 6:40 on a Tuesday morning, when a car he didn't order pulls up outside his house. In the Sahara, something is growing. A perfect ring in the sand, expanding by the hour, blind to every instrument pointed at it — and centered on nothing anyone can yet explain. The team assembled to investigate it includes a priest, a rabbi, a colonel, and a professor who never expected his second doctorate to become classified. What they find at the bottom of that ring has been waiting considerably longer than any of them have been alive. It doesn't need a name. Scripture already gave it one, two thousand years ago, and called it a lease — a thousand years, and then a door. The math on that lease is almost up. The Devil's Door is a novella about the specific horror of watching a text you've taught your whole life turn out to have been giving you coordinates the entire time — and about the eight people standing closest to the door when it stops being metaphor. That's the pitch-length version — tight, spoiler-free, built for a back cover or a listing page. Want it shorter for something like a one-line tagline, or longer for an author's-note-style blurb instead?
