The Undoing of Saint Silvanus
Description
Exciting fiction premiere from beloved New York Times bestselling author Beth
Moore. 2017 Christy Award finalist (General Fiction category) Only God knew
why Jillian Slater agreed to return to New Orleans on the news that her father
had finally drunk himself to death. It’s not like they were close. She hadn’t
seen him―or her grandmother, the ice queen―in almost 20 years. But when Adella
Atwater, the manager of her grandmother’s apartment house, called and said
Jillian’s expenses would be paid if she’d fly in for the burial, a free trip
to New Orleans was too intriguing to resist. What Adella didn’t tell her was
that the apartment house wasn’t a house at all and, whatever it was, bore the
dead weight of a long and painful history. As soon as Jillian meets the odd
assortment of renters and realizes that her grandmother had no idea she was
coming, she hatches a plan to escape. But the investigation into her father’s
death quickly unfolds and Jillian is drawn into the lives of the colorful
collection of saints and sinners who pass through Saint Silvanus. She soon
discovers there is more at stake than she ever imagined. Who is behind the
baffling messages and the strange relics left on the steps? Is it possible
that her family is actually cursed? Or is it just this crazy old house that
holds them all under its spell? Jillian walks into a web of spiritual and
personal danger borne out of her family’s broken history, and despite Adella’s
wiliest efforts, only God himself can orchestrate the undoing of all that is
going on at Saint Silvanus. Read more
