Here’s how this book is described: “A forensic accountant investigates a showboating televangelist with dubious healing powers, and quickly realizes that he may be dealing with the ‘Michelangelo of Scam Artists’ when his miracles appear to be astonishingly convincing.” We look into who the characters are, discover how this mini-series intelligently tells a fascinating spiritual tale, and find out what else is heading our way from these creators in the months ahead! I always need to point out that I do help out behind the scenes with Scout Comics, but I had nothing to do with this book, which is probably why it’s so good!
