Ecumenical Death

ECUMENICAL DEATH Once again the author has drawn from his experience and produced another of his novels that are realism bent into fiction. "The greatest enemy of Christianity," said philosopher Mortimer Adler, "is man's self-confidence. The more power he has, the less religious he becomes." This book emphasizes that truism. In the spirit of Pope John's Vatican II, a local Ecumenical Council is formed to build low cost housing in a prosperous white suburb. The inside bickering, the rage and the demonstrations that effort produces can only be told with such believability by someone who has lived it. After three people die in the violence, an older policeman says to a rookie cop, "Towns change, but people never do kid, you have it all before you." This must read book is a murder mystery that makes an important statement.Truskoff, David is the author of 'Ecumenical Death', published 2005 under ISBN 9781413484748 and ISBN 1413484743.
