Pilgrim Through This Barren Land

Bol

A JOURNEY OF FAITH AND VIOLENCE, A QUEST FOR REDEMPTIONIn the wake of World War II, former missionary and ex-Navy chaplain James MacKendrie lives a quiet life as a small-town pastor in North Carolina. But he is haunted by the memory of Paul Wang, a boy he left behind in China, who now works as a spy for U.S. Naval Intelligence. Drawn into a civil rights struggle that turns more and more violent, MacKendrie confronts the forces of injustice, with tragic results. At the same time, Wang finds himself entangled in webs of betrayal and danger, as his fellow agents are arrested by the relentless counter-intelligence agent known as the Archer. Recruited by the ambitious Naval Intelligence officer Harry Cohen, MacKendrie must decide whether to leave the safety of his family and help rescue Wang, risking capture and death on the Yangtze River. Spanning two continents and set against the conflicts of racial equality and the Cold War, MacKendrie's harrowing pilgrimage leaves him questioning the limits of loyalty, love, and faith.
