Publisher's summary

Even Catholics don't realize what's happening in the church.

It's not just a rumor, or a conspiracy theory; this story is a fictional retelling of real corruption. Learn the truth while enjoying a story of a young priest with a good heart trying to flush out the evil poisoning his church.

Jack McCreesh. A high school student who feels a powerful calling to be a priest.

Due to family circumstances, he decides to take time for discernment and join the military. Years as a Navy corpsman and working with the United States Marines have toughened Jack, but it may not be enough.

He's heard the whispers, like everyone else. He's seen the news and it makes his blood boil to know evil has permeated the sanctuary. With good in his heart, he enters the seminary to battle dark forces and the Lavender Mafia.

What Jack doesn't know is that he's in the minority. Evil has been allowed to fester. It's found a home, a place to hide. But he finds some allies, too, and focuses on graduating as an ordained priest.

He'll oppose the covert subversive network undermining his very faith and will fight to preserve the sanctity of the church and all the values it stands for. Who will stand with him? Who will oppose him? Will he survive?

Great book

I love how John Barleykorn brought to life one of the major issues within the Catholic Church. The Lavender Mafia has done some terrible things to people. He tells the story of a family who holds onto the faith and how society and the leadership treats those who are against the Lavender Mafia.
