Synopsis: A detective investigates a reputed miracle worker on behalf of a grieving husband, in this novel of faith and fear by the author of The Cuckoo Wood . . . After one meeting with a faith healer, Jane Hewitt rose from her wheelchair and walked, seemingly cured of terminal cancer, believing that her lifetime of devoted faith had been rewarded. She was wrong. She died just days later. Her husband, Ian, blames her hastened death on the faith healer she visited and turns to Dr. Alex Ripley, the so-called Miracle Detective, for help. Fascinated by the case, Ripley finds herself on Holy Island, off the coast of North Wales, caught up in an investigation that will prove more sinister and dangerous than even she could have imagined—because Ian is not the first person to complain about the faith healer. But he is the only one still alive. For now . . .
