Cradle and all : a novel
(Book)

Two pregnant teenagers -- one in privileged Newport, Rhode Island, one in a poor, remote Irish village -- have nothing in common except for the stunning fact that both are virgins. Private detective & former nun Anne Fitzgerald is called by the Archdiocese of Boston to investigate & to watch over the girls as they come to term. But Anne hasn't been told the secret prophecy of the Virgin of Fatima known only to the Pope: one of these girls will give birth to the Messiah while the other will bear the child of Satan. Caught between the certainty of science & the possibility of a miracle, Anne finds herself at the center of a terrifying battle on which the fate of humanity hangs.
