American Saint

More about the book

Raised in a poor neighborhood in Albuquerque by his mother and curandera grandmother, Gabriel Romero grows up fervently religious, privately conflicted, and consumed by what he's certain is the true will of God. A radical activist determined to enlighten the consciousness of a country losing its way, Gabriel starts his own church, and his miracles go viral, casting him as either a charlatan or a saint. But Gabriel is determined to see his divine mission to its startling end. -- adapted from jacket
