Vo Svätopeterskej bazilike vo Vatikáne slúži omšu pápež Gregor XVII. Od narodenia ho sužuje nevyliečiteľná choroba chrbtice, ktorá mu nedovoľuje vzpriamiť sa. Vtom do chrámu vchádza charizmatický, ležérne oblečený mladý muž, podíde k pápežovi, niečo mu povie a zrazu sa stane... zázrak. Pápež sa prvý raz v živote dokáže narovnať. Na druhý deň sa zázraky opakujú: klinika s pacientmi chorými na rakovinu hlási zázračné uzdravenia, deti v slepeckom ústave začnú odrazu vidieť... Lenže, ide naozaj o zázračné javy? Alebo sa za celou vecou skrýva niečo iné? Do tejto nezvyčajnej atmosféry vstupuje novinár Alexander Trecchio aj so svojou bývalou priateľkou Gabriellou Fierrovou a vzápätí sa rozkrúti kolotoč záhadných udalostí. Obidvaja sa zrazu ocitnú v nebezpečenstve života, lebo odhalili niečo, čo malo zostať skryté. Napínavý dej v kombinácii s nepredvídateľnými situáciami a šokujúcimi odhaleniami podfarbený istou dávkou romantických, ale aj tajuplných prvkov dodávajú tomuto príbehu neuveriteľný spád. Po knihe určite siahnu najmä čitatelia, ktorí sú fanúšikmi mysterióznych príbehov.

The Irish have a long and proud history in America, and New Jersey is no exception. Beginning with the first Irish immigrants who settled in every corner of the state, this vital ethnic community has left an indelible mark on all facets of life in the Garden State. New Jersey's Irish natives expressed their own discontent over British oppression by fighting alongside colonists in the American Revolution. Brave Fenians fought to preserve their new home in the Civil War. New Jersey's Irish also have become professional athletes, Unites States representatives, religious leaders, spies and business trailblazers. Author and Irish heritage researcher Tom Fox relays these and other stories that demonstrate the importance of Ireland to the development of New Jersey and the United States.
