RESTORATION Book Four: "The Book of the Dead"

Since he fled from his religious fundamentalist family over a year ago, young Chris Brenner has completed his first year as an initiate at the Center for Restoration, and become a student of Theresa Smith, one of the founders of the organization. Now, alone in his former teacher’s apartment in Manhattan, delving into the deceased Master's past through her writings, Chris begins to find the purpose and life-direction that has eluded him.

This is the resounding climax of the RESTORATION series, a four-novel arc detailing the struggles of normal Americans coping with the patriarchal legacy of American social and religious institutions as they heal the scars of dysfunctional families.
