The Game of Leela: Sacred Path to Eternity

By John J Pietrangelo

Destiny finds twin brothers, one a priest and the other an archaeologist, unexpectedly thrown into the middle of corruption among members within the highest echelon of the Vatican hierarchy, facing the challenge given to Saint Francis of Assisi long ago to Repair My Church which is falling into ruin. The archaeologist provides invaluable support, uncovering historical evidence of past deceit and corruption within the Church, while translating newly discovered ancient scrolls hidden within the depths of the Vatican Library. The priest, overwhelmed by an unsought position of authority, negotiates through life-threatening attacks at the hands of Islamic extremists, as well from within the power structure of the Church itself. He struggles with his own mortality, his spiritual priorities, and his responsibility to honestly and faithfully execute his duties. Simultaneously, he wrestles with reconciling his training as a priest with the findings within the scrolls, and revelations regarding Church history recently brought to light.Is transformation in the offing? Will those who have been given the Keys to the Kingdom continue doing business as usual? Or when all is said and done will the priest and the archaeologist triumph in the face of enormous odds? Can there be an epiphany wrought in the minds and hearts of the Church's faithful leading to a spiritual renewal? Only time will tell.Let the game begin
