What this book is about

In a small Mexican village, a teenage girl announces that she is pregnant and a virgin. The news draws the attention of a cardinal in Rome, a journalist, and dangerous men who want the child for very different reasons. Patterson's thriller-tinged religious mystery is a fast-paced exploration of faith, power, and the lengths people will go to protect — or destroy — a miracle.
