About the Book
The greatest evil can thrive when it is able to masquerade as a great good. Children are disappearing from a highly regarded academic haven for orphaned and abandoned kids. Finding these missing kids will force the detectives to risk public censure by unmasking a much-loved religious leader and benefactor. Through the venality of greed, horrible crimes are being committed in the name of scientific progress; and innocent scientists work unaware of how they are being used.
About the Author
To the author, Anthony Wolff is more than a pseudonym. It’s a dedication to one of the finest men who ever graced the planet.
Anthony Wolff, the author, who is paying tribute to Anthony Wolff, the great guy, is a fully ordained Zen Buddhist Priest. The reader may question Wolff’s
literary credentials. It’s a free country, or at least used to be. Wolff’s clerical credentials, however, are pretty impressive even to the most jaded
among us. Wolff was the first American to be ordained in The People’s Republic of China since the Communist Revolution.
No small potatoes. The ordination took place in the hallowed precincts of Nan Hua Si, the monastery founded by 6th Patriarch Hui Neng in AD 675. The reader
may be assured that the wisdom that drips from every cracked line is good Zen stuff.
Wolff knows the detectives who have solved these cases. They aren’t perfect people, but since there are no perfect people on the planet, that is hardly
news. Their actions are more eloquent than anything Wolff is capable of writing.
