Editors' synopsis in the New Oxford Review. March 2011.

"American pilgrims at an apparition site in Spain are caught up in frightening visions, which appear to signal the end of the current age.

"[This novel] is the story of Fr. Santorelli's struggles to accept and fulfill his new calling as the visions spread inexorably from country to country, triggering plots within and against the Catholic Church and international intrigues, terrorist acts, and nuclear war ..."

Cool! :)
