Описание книги

Dr. Royce Benders in the mid-eighties seems to have it all. A Nobel Prize winner on the cutting edge of the rapidly developing DNA field for criminology and human embryogenesis. But Benders' dream has nothing to do with fame or fortune. He is a devout Christian obsessed with the Second Coming and impatient to see it in his lifetime. The Catholic Church invites Dr. Benders to work on the Shroud of Turin to help devise a plan to save the rapidly deteriorating linen cloth that wrapped Jesus in the tomb after his crucifixion. Taking blood from the holiest of Christian artifacts, he returns to L.A. and inseminates several women in his in vitro clinic to hasten the Second Coming. Now these descendants of the Shroud are in their late twenties. What Dr. Benders successfully created brings the best of Heaven and the worst of Hell face-to-face.

About The Author

Отрывок из книги

Two long-time friends played a role in getting The Shroud to a published book. Jim Hamric read a screenplay of mine (CRISSCROSS) a couple of years ago and pushed me to write a book version. I have to admit without Jim’s prodding I would have never moved to the book format and as a result, Crisscross was published in August of 2013. Jim helped proof read drafts of both books and I have come to depend on his judgement when the proper communication values are present.

Another dear friend, Ron McConnell, not only has proofed the books but made some directional changes that added a great deal of continuity to The Shroud. His input elevated the finished product and gave The Shroud a very real sense of adventure and buttoned down loose ends that I didn’t anticipate. His thinking parallels mine which is spooky and great at the same time.

.....

Jim avoids going home whenever possible and when Mrs. Dennis asks him to have dinner, he jumps at the chance. He returns home around 10:00 Saturday night and easily gets by Odis passed out on the living room couch and goes to bed.

Sunday morning starts down the usual path, Odis put on the same jeans and blazer he wears to church every outing with the exception of a new golf shirt he bought at Target. He wakes Brenda up and together they are at the church thirty minutes early for the first of three services Odis ushers for.
