About
She needs nothing short of a miracle . . .
Sister Agatha lies on her deathbed. But as she takes her final breath, the 124–year–old nun experiences a vision. At the Pearly Gates, St Peter will only allow her entry into heaven if she can atone for her past wrongdoings. And so, the Irish nun is given a divine new mission: to return to earth and honor four unsung heroes.
Accompanied by a stray Labrador, Sister Agatha embarks on a globe–spanning pilgrimage from Salem to Iceland, Turkey to Crete, meeting actors, activists and accidental sinners along the way. Each encounter brings laughter, chaos and several miracles-as well as the occasional crime or two.
Back at the convent, the Mother Superior confronts the press, social media scandals and her own disbelief: is the world's most famous nun truly who she claims to be?
Full of wit and wicked delight, Sister Agatha at the Pearly Gates is a joyful, life–affirming journey about faith, friendship and finding purpose when heaven itself has other plans.
