Clio Griffin, an out-of-work academic with an attitude and a
tendency toward sarcasm, travels to England to interview for a
last-chance job--as the pet historian for an antiquarian group who
hope to use her to build the reputation of the local saint--Alban,
the first Christian martyr of Britain. No sooner does she arrive
than the saint, dead for seventeen centuries, starts talking to
her--out loud. The voice is hard enough for Clio to take; her
mother, in her final illness, had lost touch with reality, and Clio
fears the same fate. When the saint drags her unwilling into the
past, to live the lives of people long dead, Clio fights to hold on
to her reason. The story question: how does a modern, skeptical,
rational person fit the irrational, the supernatural, into her life
and still make some kind of sense of it all? The answer: not
easily.
