Metanoia

Joe, a bright young American, fails to confront the reality of separation from his English scientist wife. His life's in a tailspin. When his wife unexpectedly returns center stage in his life, she is the pregnant concubine of a wealthy ex-terrorist, the target of assassins, and at the center of a spectacular demonstration of her consort's suspicious powers. Joe's struggle to unravel the mysteries surrounding his wife ensnares him in a world of suffering and violence as he becomes the unwitting ally of her persecutors. Joe is mentally unready and spiritually unsuited for what lies in wait for him. He cannot accept the evidence of his senses. His mind unglues as he hunts for a rational explanation of what is happening to him. His dream of winning back his wife disintegrates before his eyes, painfully demolished by an unborn baby that he wishes had never been conceived, a baby whose life his wife and her consort value above his, a baby whose fate and mysterious significance hang in the balance.
