Synopsis

Long before the relic was stolen - before the curative miracle was cultured from the DNA they found there - even before the blood that it contained had been cut from the vein, Loman had walked his ragged mile in the company of a canine. His dreams told him so.

Colin Edwards' debut novel follows Loman's journey - deposited at a homeless shelter on the periphery of Vatican City with Angus, his border collie, and a montage of memories which only emerge through his nightmares. Alongside Filippo, the most foul mouthed Catholic priest in Rome, the three search out the cure for the world locked away within Loman's dreams.

Encapsulating themes of mental illness, medical science, the untapped value of society's most deprived and the effects of humanity's disastrous interpretation of biblical dominion, it is also a tale of one person's love for their dog.
