This captivating and commendable work had me immersed from the beginning. The story flows from scene to scene with ease, and the author shows exceptional skill when it comes to storytelling.  There are twists and turns in this page turner that will take the reader on a challenging journey. I would imagine that this read will be particularly challenging for devout Christians. Nevertheless, it is a thought-provoking and fascinating read.The main character, Tony Lamb, was once a successful graphic designer. However, having being accused of emotional emptiness by his wife, she leaves him. From that time on, he begins to develop a serious drinking problem. When his secretary decides that enough is enough, she hands him a plane ticket for the Holy Land to meet up with the controversial psychiatrist Dr Robin Doll.Tony's healing journey begins by following the milestones of Jesus' life and along the way they are joined by Miri, a tour guide and an authority on ancient Israel.  She warms the story with her femininity and offers hope and direction to a man that has lost his way.In order for this story to have balance another character is introduced; Father Matthew Staimler. This elderly priest shows Tony how to balance reason with faith. Presenting the arguments with the very sanity of Jesus on the line, both Father Matthew and Dr Doll engage in thought-provoking debate.This is a story of pain, discovery and healing, and ultimately love.
