Synopsis

"Fascinating...convincing...believable."
NEWSDAY The time is 1940. Jonathan Darrow is an Anglican priest when he receives a shattering vision and knows he must leave the monastery that has been his home for seventeen years. As he plunges into the temptations of the real world, a crisis sends him into the labyrinth of his past to pluck out the buried truth beneath the deceptions he has been living through.

Publishers Weekly

Jon Darrow, an Anglican priest and abbot with psychic abilities, has a vision that he interprets as God's instruction to leave his religious order. ``In this witty, wise novel, the question `Does God exist?' is always understood and, true to life, ambiguously answered,'' wrote PW. (Nov.)
