The People Without Faces (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798385051632)

Alden Schwartz, a 72-year-old Vietnam War veteran and widower, first hears about the Coronavirus crisis from his edgy, religious neighbor, Ellen Clarke, whose frequent visits to the television fill her with fear and agitation. Alden scrutinizes the legitimacy of the claims and whirlwind of fearful messages heralding from his neighbor and the media outlets. His truthseeking journey clashes with a unique set of fears, which creates a crisis of faith and forces him to question his trust in God and his hope for humanity. To Alden, the world has become a crowd of faceless people. An unexpected tragedy, ensuing grief, and ongoing restrictions leave Alden second-guessing his fortitude and ability to fulfill the final request of a deceased friend, an appeal to solve a mystery that spans two decades. Two quirky, longtime friends encourage Alden to embark on a mission to carry a message of love to an unknown man halfway across the country. Will he lay aside his fear and trust God to lead him? If he seeks to undertake this mission, are there enough clues left behind for him to complete the task and honor the memory of his beloved friend?
