Description
Its been more than thirty years since New York City medical examiner Jack Stapletons college graduation and almost as long since hed been in touch with former classmates Shawn Doherty and Kevin Murray. Once a highly regarded ophthalmologist, Jacks career took a dramatic turn after a tragic accident that destroyed his family. But that, too, is very much in the past: Jack has remarriedto longtime colleague and fellow medical examiner Laurie Montgomeryand is the father of a young child. But his renegade, activist personality cant rest, and after performing a postmortem on a young college student who had recently been treated by a chiropractor, Jack decides to explore alternative medicine. What makes some people step outside the medical establishment to seek care from practitioners of Eastern philosophies and even faith healers? Jacks classmate Shawn Doherty is now a renowned archeologist and biblical scholar at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, whose taste for good wine and generally deteriorating health are taking a toll on his career. He has recently obtained permission for a final dig beneath Saint Peters, and despite his long-standing grudge against the Catholic Church, begins his researchwhich eventually takes him to Jerusalem and Veniceonly to make a startling discovery with ecclesiastical and medical implications. And when Kevin Murray, now Bishop of the Archdiocese of New York, gets wind of Shawns findings, hes desperate to keep them from the public. Kevin has strong political ambitions within the Church, but his association with Shawn threatens to undermine them. Kevin turns to his old friend Jack to help protect an explosive secretone with the power to change lives forever.
