Touch - elmore leonard

A former Franciscan monk with the healing touch finds himself in Michigan, surrounded by a slew of cash-hungry hucksters and a beautiful baton-twirler who wants him to lay his hands on her.

(August) Touch is sensational suspense from the master of crime fiction, New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard.

A Michigan woman was blind and now she can see, after being touched by a young man who calls himself Juvenal.

Maybe it was just coincidence, but Bill Hill--who used to run the spectacular Uni-Faith Ministry in Dalton, Georgia, and now sells RVs--can see dollar signs when he looks at this kid with the magic touch.

The trouble is that others see them also, including a wacko fundamentalist fascist with his own private army of the faithful and an assortment of media leeches.

But everyone whos looking to put the touch on the healer is in for a big surprise--because Juvenals got a trick or two up his sleeve that nobody sees coming.
