Description
A new Pope will be chosen in Rome . . . and she just might be a woman. But she's made some powerful enemies who will stop at nothing-not even murder.
The world is watching as massive crowds gather in Rome, waiting for news of a new pope, one who promises to be unlike any other in history. It's a turning point that may change the Church forever. Some followers are ecstatic that the movement reinvigorating the Church is about to reach the Vatican, but the leading candidate has made a legion of powerful enemies who aren't afraid to kill for their cause.
From a difficult childhood with drug addled parents, to a career as a doctor on the front lines in Sudan, to a series of trials that test her faith at every turn, Brigid Fitzgerald's convictions and callings have made her the target of all those who fear that the Church has lost its way-dangerous adversaries who abhor challenges to tradition. Locked in a deadly, high-stakes battle with forces determined to undermine everything she believes in, Brigid must convert her enemies to her cause before she loses her faith . . . and her life.
From a civil war in Sudan to the drug dens and law firms of Boston, Woman of God spans the globe with a thrilling tale of perseverance, love, trust and what it means to live in a fallen world.

Woman of God
1By O'SeayThis is awful, anti Catholic garbage. Terrible characters, awful dialogue, just awful at the worst level.What if?
5By rokinrev“Bridgid, this is your life. It belongs to you” Dr. Brigid Fitzgerald rose above her addicted parents’ family home in Boston, and has become a wonderful doctor; at least for her current patients. It doesn’t seem to matter whether it’s South Sudan, or Paris, or even back in Boston, she’s a healer who takes risks, loves deeply and openly. For someone who came into her faith as a child, what she has confronted has shaken that faith deeply. However, she hasn’t seen anything...yet. In a story that harkens back at times to “The Last Temptation of Christ” and incorporates the Roman Catholic Clergy scandals, the horror of war and the evil humans are capable of, this story of faith reminds me that James Patterson can really write something besides formulaic crime mysteries [ don’t get me wrong,I am currently addicted to Instinct on CBS]. This book touches me in a way “The Shack”, “Imzadi Forever” and “What Dreams May Come” have in my life. This was an ebook from the library but it is one I’m going to find a copy of for my library. Highly Recommended 5/5Woman of God

5By CAmcrapOK - after reading and giving a terrible review of Never Never, and stating I would never read another Patterson book - I just finished Woman of God - I am Catholic - non church going - and not a fan of any organized religion - This book is wonderful - made me cry and I am in tears as I write this - This JMJ is so what we need - I know it's happening, in baby steps, but I don't have another twenty years to make it a reality. Thank you James Patterson for this read - and making it a reality for me today and hope for our future - Let the pink smoke blow!A Masterpiece
