Samuel Braden is being made to face mortality in the most acute way - he is dying of cancer. And death is coming to haunt him in the form of an agonising regret; a regret centred around three marriages and the three estranged children that each marriage produced. He manages to convince each of his children to visit with him, and to each he makes a startling request, that they promise to ensure that he is buried in his resting place of choice. It is startling because to each child he gives a different location. In his last days, Sam is sending a message that he had taken too long to deliver.

Suzy, a young, enthusiastic photography student, embarks on an ambitious project, taking her back to her family's neglected East End roots and the ageing Jewish community still there. As she photographs the synagogue's eccentric congregation, she falls under the spell of their charismatic leader, Eli, who captivates her with tales of the area's rich heritage and his own bitter memories. But as their friendship develops, so too do their obsessions until, too late for them to see, danger appears through the lens.'How good to come upon a novelist who is life-affirming even while he exposes the pain and experience of what is the lot of those caught up in the terrible drama of history...

From the Founding Fathers through the present, Christianity has exercised powerful influence in the United States—from its role in shaping politics and social institutions to its hand in inspiring art and culture. The Encyclopedia of Christianity in the United States outlines the myriad roles Christianity has played and continues to play. This masterful five-volume reference work includes biographies of major figures in the Christian church in the United States, influential religious documents and Supreme Court decisions, and information on theology and theologians, denominations, faith-based organizations, immigration, art—from decorative arts and film to music and literature—evangelism and crusades, the significant role of women, racial issues, civil religion, and more. The first volume opens with introductory essays that provide snapshots of Christianity in the U.S. from pre-colonial times to the present, as well as a statistical profile and a timeline of key dates and events. Entries are organized from A to Z. The final volume closes with essays exploring impressions of Christianity in the United States from other faiths and other parts of the world, as well as a select yet comprehensive bibliography. Appendices help readers locate entries by thematic section and author, and a comprehensive index further aids navigation.
