Publisher's Synopsis

It's never easy addressing a crowd. Especially when the crowd is the entire world - live - and you're stuck for inspiration. And after the scientific proof that the Turin Shroud is real proves too difficult for Pope Joshua Angeles to use, all seems lost for him. However, when something crash-lands off the Irish coast and destroys the Chapel of St Tib's, he becomes very inspired.
Unfortunately so do the US Military and the Secret Services of every major world power. Can Major-General Gelding III prevent the Pope proving that aliens exist - live on CNN? Will Father O'Suilleabhain have to mount the St Tib's Chapel Roof Repair Fund?
When the angry parents of two eloping aliens appear at the edge of the solar system and start powering annihilation systems, it begins to look like no one will be around long enough to find out. Surely it'll take a miracle to save the planet?
