Woven from the twin strands of faith and science comes a spellbinding novel of heavenly portents, earthly realities, and the best and worst of the human heart. A sane woman is confined to a mental institution. She stares at the Moon. An insane man walks the streets of Southern California. He stares at the Moon. A science teacher in the mountains of California makes an impossible discovery. The Moon is changing. A red spot has appeared on the surface and it's spreading. Marcus Stiller monitors it through his telescope. Scientists around the world aim high-powered instruments at the anomaly. The world watches and waits. No one has answers.
