Nerva, the future emperor of Rome, called the Christian faith Desiderata's lost cause. At the time the 'Universal Church' counted only a few thousand faithful rather than untold millions, and he didn't think it would last, as the Second Coming of the Messiah was looking more and more like a no-show. His blind friend Desiderata would demur and argue.
However, solving a murder isn't simple when killing a man is not even a crime according to the law. In the end the 'lost cause' was not the one Desi expected.
Those who enjoyed the original 'Millennia Trilogy' will miss the 'parallel history' treatment. Daisy Hayes is no longer in the picture, only her first-century blind doppelgänger. But even so the plot is dizzying enough. - The Weekly Banner
