Where Angels Sleep - Paperback

by Emmet Fox (Author), Jonathan Davidson (Author)

Dr. Shane Davis recently moved his family to Jackson, Wyoming after heading the Federal Drug Administration for a decade. He is trying to heal the wounds of his marriage and bring a sense of normalcy back to their lives. But Washington, D.C. follows the Davis family to the wilds of nearby Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. A pharmaceutical company of questionable ethics has gained Federal rights to bio-prospect microbes from geothermal pools in the area to advance medical science and develop treatments to cure cancer and other diseases. Shane knows all about Rhoades Pharmaceutical's practices. His young son is nearly comatose from a clinical drug trial developed by them and their lead scientist. Through synchronous events, Shane meets a Franciscan Priest named Father Bennington who, not long ago, tried to bury himself in rubble because of his sorrow while watching the Church turn its back on his poor parish in Mexico. But Father Timothy meets a young boy who is fraught with leukemia. The boy's strength and determination in the face of death brings Father Tim back to life. Together, Shane and Father Tim battle the odds against them when the wrath of God is released in a wave of sicknesses that plague the community, the entire nation, and other parts of the world. Shane must discover secrets to the mysterious illnesses, ones that he learns are strangely linked to passages in The Bible. While struggling with his inability to forgive others and himself for events in the past, he must learn the true origins of the mysterious diseases to save the lives of those he loves. Shane's success hinges upon his quest for personal enlightenment when he finds himself in a very special place with seemingly mystical powers that may provide healing for all.
