The age of miracles has passed. Or has it? The Cloning is a fast moving story of a young, hedonistic Harvard professor who clones a fragment from the Shroud of Turin believing that it contains Jesus' DNA, then implants the cells in the womb of a hell-raising youngster named Maria. This irreligious pair finds their lives hurled into new orbits by sudden, unprecedented fame . . . and a love that blossoms in the midst of chaos caused by the possible second coming. Their experiences include the new post VatiLeaks Pope, the U.S. President, a banana republic dictator, and clerics on three continents. The story is satirical at moments, but it's not without a spiritual aspect; the two central characters are profoundly transformed.
