What he discovers will change everything he thought he knew.
Matthew Callaghan has spent a lifetime chasing the truth. As a journalist, he exposed corruption, deception, and the darker corners of human nature. But since his wife’s passing, his days have quieted into routine, his pen long set aside.
Then his granddaughter, Sarah, arrives with a request that stirs something in him: she wants him to investigate a miracle.
The story leads him to a quiet monastery and to Sister Anastasia, a woman whose life changed forever in 1981, when the walkways of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency collapsed around her. Trapped beneath tons of concrete, she prayed for a miracle—in the next instant, she was free. No one knows how she escaped.
When Matthew travels to the monastery to meet her, he’s stunned to discover they share a past. What begins as a skeptic’s inquiry becomes a journey through memory, loss, and the mysterious edge of belief.
Inspired by true events, The Skeptic and The Miracle is a tender, unforgettable novel about the mysteries that connect us—the ones we can’t prove, but somehow know are true.
