The Phoenician Messenger

There is life and death, and so there is religion. As weak as that sounds, consider this: Without the death part, it's all choreography, or so says the Messenger.

In this story, there are three time-frames. In 1901, a boy lives in the streets of Cyprus, near Lebanon. His most prized possession is a tattered book in cryptic languages. Before that, in the first century CE, a single mother and her three sons wait for the return of a wise old teacher.

Lastly, in 1968, a young man comes to Miami Beach to sell his father's book. In the unfolding of these lives is a saga of history, belief, and destiny never put together this way before.
