REBIRTH IN THE AFTERLIFE

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Barry Cussel’s debut novel is a bold and captivating work born from his fascination with reincarnation. At only 38 years old, he created an entirely original universe-almost unheard-of in the Netherlands at the time-in which the deepest secrets of the human soul are uncovered through advanced technology and hypnotic experimentation. In a Dutch scientific laboratory, a groundbreaking computer program is developed that allows hypnosis specialists to make a person’s hidden past visible. The memories of a married couple who volunteer for the experiment unfold across large monitors-layer after layer of their previous lives revealed, even as the truth edges dangerously close to their very existence. Cussel follows their souls through countless incarnations, from prehistoric times to the modern era. The two first appear as Boa and Anaconda in their earliest, primitive forms; later as a Dutch count and a remarkable beauty who protects the Low Countries from the terrifying scourge of the “flying bats.” Their path carries them into early American history, where they emerge as a French hitman and an irresistible prostitute, ultimately leading to their darkest reincarnations as prominent figures within Hitler’s Third Reich.
