Sacred Crossing

By Doris Dix Caruso

A medical student, Daniel Berra, in his senior year of study, is desperate for help with a profound and distressful problem. In an effort to escape ruin of his entire career, he turns to his best friend, Father Robert for guidance. The novel, Sacred Crossing, depicts the inner strength of Daniel's character on the unusual path that he has chosen for the next seventeen years of his life as a doctor. He keeps this daring, yet nonetheless beautiful secret shared only with his immediate family, embracing Papa Joe, his Italian father who came to America in childhood; his devoted Polish mother, Rose; Teresa, his fiance; his sister: Julie and the nearby extended; caring family. It is an inviolable secret which they all keep, while this complex and unique story unfolds. Set in the late twentieth and into the twenty-first century in the heart of Chicago, it tells of this middle-class family and the true miracle that ensues. This is an uncommon and bold account of heart-rending devotion to a cause that is larger than life itself
