Mystery.
HTML: A man's body is discovered in a church yard, the sign of the cross carved into his abdomen. Later he is found to be Alan Jacobs, a troubled psychiatric nurse.

After another tragic death, Jenny's suspicions turn toward a powerful new global phenomenon: the politically ambitious and intoxicatingly charismatic Mission Church of God. Meanwhile Jenny must finally confront the demons of her past, and as her private life threatens to shatter, she faces intense pressure from all angles to cease her investigations. But to Jenny Cooper, whose whole life has been governed by deception, the truth is everything. . … (mehr) |

For the Lord himself will come down from heaven , with a loud command , with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God ,and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that , we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
1 Thessalonians 4 :16-17  I long for scenes where man has never trod-
For scenes where women never smiled or wept-
There to abide with my Creator , God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Full of high thoughts, unborn. So let me lie-
The grass below;above , the vaulted sky.
John Clare
