Deadly Beloved
“For years, Father Tibor Kasparian had been like nobody else on Cavanaugh Street. An immigrant from Soviet Armenia, a veteran of the gulags and the free-floating religious persecution of the old Soviet empire, he had been not only an oddity but an object of awe.

That he should still be so convinced of the... truth of the religion he had been ordained to serve was more than a miracle. It was, according to Mary Ohanian’s passionate declaration, proof positive of the existence of God. Over the years, though, Tibor had become less exotic. The Soviet Union had broken up, making Armenia independent for the first time in almost a century.
