About the book

The three major religions of the world clash in Professor Christopher Stone’s college classroom, and the conflict escalates when someone murders his wife, Eden, in a bombing: a bomb intended for him.

Unsure whether his former enemies have found him, or a fanatical student has sought revenge for a classroom lecture, Professor Stone sets out to find the one who murdered his wife and avenge her death. All the while, the investigators target him as their number one suspect. And the professor withholds information about a former life, which thwarts the investigation.

Stone’s vendetta comes to a screeching halt when his enemies realize he escaped their assassination attempt and send another hitman to finish the task. This avowed enemy throws acid into Stone’s eyes, leaving him blind. His blindness plunges him into despair, and out of desperation he again seeks the God of his father.

Did Professor Stone err in withholding information at the beginning of the investigation? Did the investigators make a tragic mistake by assuming too much about the charred body in Stone’s bedroom? Will Christopher Stone reclaim his lost faith? The final pages reveal the truth.
