How did Noah Cleary, a youthful big-city crime reporter who purports to be an unbeliever, wind up in Kansas battling satanic forces plotting to subvert the coming of the End Time? It all began with Noah's friendship with the mysterious Rabbi Chaim Neutag. Although he had befriended the rabbi months earlier, Noah knew no personal details about him. Then a newspaper story about the disappearance of a young girl-the only surviving member of a brutally slain Midwestern farm family-and her prize heifer prompt the rabbi to open up. Noah learns the shocking details of how, some 40 years ago, a jealous and vindictive colleague had rendered the rabbi blind and helpless, to prevent the disclosure of the truth he had uncovered, the existence of Judaic prophetic texts foretelling the coming of Jesus. It was clear to the rabbi that the abductions in Kansas were connected to an attempt to disrupt the commencement of Armageddon by preventing, as required by scripture, the sacrifice of a flawless red heifer. Moved by the rabbi's plea, Noah proceeds with his investigation into the girl's disappearance and the calf's significance. Encountering a succession of strange and spectral events, Noah finds himself on the front line of a struggle that has consequences for his-and humanity's-salvation. | The Heifer Chronicles by Marc Joseph, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
