Dr. Stanley Goldstein - Author and Psychologist

Review by Kim Paffenroth, Ph.D., author of: Judas: Images of the Lost Disciple, and The Story of Jesus According to L:

"The author weaves psychology, theology, and conspiracy into a suspenseful, lively read. His protagonist--a jaded, promiscuous, godless, paranoid loner--becomes, in spite of himself, one of the oddest champions of "family values," finally finding that only love, trust, duty, and integrity can give him the meaning and peace that he has so painfully lacked all his life. This is a remarkably pious and uplifting tale of hope taking root in the modern world of alienation and emptiness."

A Jewish psychiatrist, haunted by guilt and recurring nightmares of the electric chair, dedicates his life to healing the poor--before being accused of murdering women across America. Confronting certain execution, he prays for the first time: that his lover remain with him until his death. But the doctor has other allies: a lawyer seeking public sympathy; a retired presidential advisor to educate him on power and corruption; and a fallen minister who believes him Christlike, even, at times, the long awaited Messiah.

This rich, complex novel, bursting with characterizations of the successful yet lost, celebrates the power of love and redemption, and search for enduring values.
