Sudden Rivers

By Michael Jeffery Blair

Parrish is a burnt-out U.S. diplomat in Cairo, his future buried in a performance evaluation somewhere. But when rumors of his mysterious powers spread, a grassroots Muslim following suddenly starts calling him "The Expected One"-the last thing America needed in Egypt. It didn't help that he had resurrected the leader's daughter from near death and was on the run with her.

All he wanted was to keep under the radar at the embassy and hunt for antiquities. Who knew the General would grab power, a man as famous for his gourmet cooking as he was for his fundamentalism-though soon his daughter would test that faith.

Suddenly, everybody wants Parrish. The junta for murder; Islamists for blasphemy; the State Department just wants him gone...but Egyptians desperately want to believe-and that's the problem.

Unexpectedly, something bigger is happening, something profound. Parrish is evolving into an enigmatic new person, and it sweeps him into events he never before could have imagined.
