Alice Fairweather, a lapsed Catholic who lives in upstate New York with her two sons and philandering hubby (whom she wants to distraction), has just lost her dream job as a radio chat show hostess. When one of the family pet dogs abruptly becomes gravely unwell, Alice opts out of a family group spelunking vacation to nurse the pooch. Unexpectedly, her husband's charismatic Nicaraguan Harvard roommate, Abelardo - coffee planter, failed seminarian, and scion of a vintage Nicaraguan family - involves visit as part of his search to have his aunt canonized as the first Nicaraguan saint. Through a number of slightly bizarre and miraculous situations, Abelardo must give back home to his community before his canonization work is complete. But Alice, with time on her behalf hands and a void to fill up, adopts Abelardo's objective and becomes obsessed with helping him find the path to sanctify his ancestor. Not merely does she befriend Hubert, the eccentric man responsible for New York's hagiography golf club, she becomes slightly of a specialist on the many women who've achieved the differentiation of sainthood, and soon sees herself over a planes destined for Nicaragua. Abelardo's search to canonize his aunt, as well as Alice's quest to save lots of her marriage, produces a miraculous history of love, damage, and faith.
