Miracles are happening in a small town near Roswell, New Mexico. Cancer patients are being mysteriously cured of all traces of their disease. Schoolteacher Robert Clark is desperate for that same miracle for his ailing wife Molly. Late one night Robert witnesses some strange goings on in his friends Al's wife's room. The next day she too is cured and leaves for home.

His desperate search for this miracle cure leads Robert and Al, into the mountains of New Mexico, where they stumble upon some 'out of this world' goings on! Along for the ride is a doctor whose father died years before, under questionable circumstances. The good doctor took to his grave some incredible secrets that are about to be uncovered by the men.
___________________

Danger, secrets, lies, desperation and love are at the forefront of this exciting new book. This is the first science fiction book I've had the opportunity to read and I was certainly impressed. Packed with emotion I could relate to (my mother died of cancer a few years ago and I would have done anything for a cure, like Robert), CATCH A FALLING STAR is a well-plotted story with many surprises. Fans of the television show Roswell would enjoy this book.

I fell in love with one of the characters in the books. Let's just say he's a 'gem'. I couldn't get enough of him. I laughed out loud at some of his dialogue. What a terrific addition to the story. Thank you Ms. Daniel.

 Robert Clark will do anything for his wife whose cancer returned while they
 are vacationing in New Mexico. He begins to notice strange things happening
 in the hospital to which his wife is admitted. A woman who is near death
 miraculously recovers after Robert sees a strange glowing light in her room.

 Then, he and Al (whose wife is in the same hospital and dying of cancer)
discover another miraculous incident of a person completely recovering from
 terminal cancer. Whatever cured these other people the men want for their
wives.

 One night Robert sees the strange glowing light coming from Al's
 wife's room. Robert investigates and, oh my, what he discovers.

 What a page-turner!

CATCH A FALLING STAR had me glued to the chair. I couldn't put it down
until I got to the end. Mystery, intrigue, government cover-ups,
and a "ticking bomb"-both figuratively (Robert's dying wife) and literally.

Author Daniel captures the frustration of a man helpless to save
his wife who is galvanized by a spark of hope. You'll root for this
determined man. What is better than this book? The prospect of a sequel.
The further adventures of Robert and Al?
