Hail Mary Heaven Sent

by Frank Cosentino

Meshing reality with fiction, Hail Mary Heaven Sent is a novel set in the Cold War era. It was a time when nuclear powers, the USSR and the West, were attempting to demonstrate the "superiority" of their system, culture and society. Along with the space race and scientific achievements, international sport - the Olympics, soccer in the U.K., basketball in the U.S.A., hockey in Canada- on the surface friendly, benign competitions, took on new importance in this "war without weapons" for the minds and souls of citizens in both camps. When a Soviet parallel "diabolical" plot is uncovered, the result is the "inevitability of communism" in a head-on collision with the "Message of Fatima." The the fall of the Soviet Union. Coincidence or Divine intervention?
