Sanctuary Creek

In Sanctuary Creek, the third novel in The Macroglint Trilogy set in the near future, Chicago is the new home of the Vatican and the first American Pope. But all is not peaceful. This American Century of new Catholicism is rocked by news of the authenticity of the recently discovered diaries of St. Sebastian (who claims Jesus was a third-rate magician), the suspicious death of one of the new Pope's closest cardinals, and the rumored existence of a porn video featuring the world-renowned Catholic pop star Angelique and someone very high up in this new American Catholic Church. Only Terry Samson, a widowed accountant and friend of the Pope from before his Accession, can be trusted to find out the truth. "Tense, involving, Sixes is a smart near-future thriller with a startlingly real sense of plausibility. In a world that's falling apart, can one ordinary person make a difference? Tremendous stuff! Kavanagh can write!"
