The Miracle Ladies
The
Miracle Ladies
by
Jean-Michel Désiré
Genre:
Supernatural Thriller
Apostles
and a man who calls himself the Redeemer … a scenario pointing to
the promised return of Jesus-Christ, except that way above all
prophecies and expectations, no one anticipated a series of miracles
by women worldwide. Faced with the ultimate puzzle, the Vatican
recruits academics Krystelle Vignelot and Guillermo Ricci for help in
understanding the perplexity of the events.
Observers,
protectors, academics, a covert medical facility, a concealed
endeavor, and a gun-for-hire with the self-assigned nickname of Ghost
will clash in the race to demystify the unexplainable, but miracles
are by definition contrary to the laws of nature and attributed to
supernatural causes. And so, allegiances and non-believers alike face
the ultimate test of faith.
But
even the darkest facet of the human heart could not foresee the
events that would climax in Rio de Janeiro, a huge light and sound
shadow that the world would remember forever because of the miracle
ladies.
Jean-Michel
Désiré was born on the magnificent tropical island of Mauritius,
where he completed his primary and secondary studies in compulsory
bilingual French and English languages. An acute love of reading
combined with a great interest in art (drawing and painting) pushed
Jean-Michel from a young age to want to write his own comic books,
but a lack of opportunity blocked his efforts. It was this same lack
of opportunity of the time that triggered a need to perform further
studies. At age 22, Jean-Michel left Mauritius for North London,
England, where he completed a bachelor of Engineering in Electronics
followed by a Master of Philosophy in Microelectronics.
While
concluding his Master’s degree, Jean-Michel met the lady who became
his wife a year later, year during which they also moved to Montreal
Canada where Jean-Michel had been offered an engineering position in
the Aerospace industry. Life had its own agenda, and within the first
eighteen months, their daughter was born in the middle of a snow
storm in Montreal. Six years later, their son came into the world and
the obvious demands of family life became the main priorities.
During
the winter of 2008, Jean-Michel slipped on the ice during a storm and
fractured his ankle in multiple locations. Recovering at home after
surgery, Jean-Michel decided that the time had come to revive his
passion for writing. Within two years, his first book ‘The
Storyteller’s Nights’ was published. The positive feedback from
readers fueled Jean-Michel to exploit his bilingualism and he
translated the story into French, ‘Les Nuits du Conteur’ being
published in 2015. He then felt the wind in his sails and published
‘Fantasy Man’ in 2017, and recently, ‘Revanche (Revenge)’
(the follow-up to ‘Les Nuits du Conteur’) in 2019. ‘Fantasy
Man’ is presently nominated for an award, top ten finalist to be
announced on 22 August 2019. He has just completed his next English
book, entitled ‘The Miracle Ladies’.
Engineer
by day, writer by night, Jean-Michel plans to keep letting his
imagination go wild while capturing it all on paper. Surrounded by a
great family, he plans to write a whole lot more. When he is not
writing, he spends quality time with his family and travels yearly
back to Mauritius to visit his Mom and brothers.
