Description:
When the rapture comes, believers say, the faithful will be lifted bodily up to heaven while sinners will be left behind to endure Armageddon. In the little Indiana town of Rapture, Armageddon seems to be just around the corner as townspeople mysteriously disappear. The police suspect drug-related murder; Owen Keane, a former seminarian, isn't so sure. In The Ordained, author Terence Faherty mixes faith and crime to come up with an unusual mystery tale. The story begins with Keane's return to Indiana to testify at the parole hearing of a man he helped convict many years before; what begins as a moral obligation becomes personal when he meets the convicted man's daughter and falls in love. The strange disappearances in Rapture reawaken Keane's religious sensibilities, but when his girlfriend also vanishes, he must balance faith and skepticism in order to find the truth.
