DIVINE. A Novel.

Christian relics, ancient cults, and coldhearted conspiracy. 
Jay, an adolescent orphan, educated and smart beyond his years, discovers at his mother’s deathbed that he has been cloned. As he grapples with his centuries old bloodline, he finds himself in the crosshairs of an ambitious cardinal, an obscure Roman cult, and a group of Tibetan monks. The chase takes Jay from his dorm room at Ettal Abbey in Bavaria, to western Cyprus, and back to the foothills of the Alps. Stakes are high: he who wins Jay’s favor, will rule the Age of the Water Bearer. Read more
