The world is not finished with Adak Kinde.
2421 AD: Finally able to grieve the loss of Beth Raven, Adam wants nothing more than to return to the normal life of a pastor, officiating during the festival of the spring equinox.
But the police want his help identifying a body.
His congregation has picked out a wife for him.
A witch from squatter territory makes him question his faith.
He meets a ghost.
And, of course, the body turns out to be a victim of murder.
Praise from readers for Shadow of the Human:
"Beautifully written . . . for fans of Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose."
"The only drawback I found with Shadow of the Human was that it ended too soon."
"The Kinde Mysteries . . . never fail to raise the deeper mystery that all of us are trying to unravel, the mystery of our own humanity."
If you like a good mystery, alternate realities, or a book that makes you think, you want to read Return of the Human.
