Inhaltsangabe

Award-winning author Ann Hood was firmly rooted in the physical world - practical, realistic, and skeptical about many things in life at the start of the second millennium. But despite these traits, when her father was diagnosed with terminal cancer, she traveled from Rhode Island to El Santuario de Chimayo in New Mexico, accompanied by her newborn daugher, believing she could discover a miracle to save him. Ultimately, Ann Hood's search led her to trace her own Catholic roots, venturing to the old, remote Italian village where her great-grandmother was renowned for her healing powers, and visiting shrines in Europe and the United States. What Ann Hood finally discovered after the death of her father was the courage to accept what had come her way and an appreciation for the faith in miracles held by millions around the world.
