Miracle of the Rising Sun

Joseph Sciuto’s ninth novel, MIRACLE OF THE RISING SUN, is a riveting portrayal of a diverse group of individuals who have experienced life-changing trauma.
Nick, a wartime reporter who, after ten years of covering wars, only sleeps forty-five minutes a night to avoid the nightmares of reliving his horrifying experiences.
Alicia, a twenty-three-year-old supermodel, is the victim of a brutal rape and beating that destroys her beauty and her life. She retreats from the world, hiding in her apartment, ashamed.
Bee, a ten-year-old child, lives with the fear of being placed with yet another foster family that abuses her.
Christine, a fifty-year-old mother, who lives with the guilt of neglecting her son when he was growing up and with the fear of the subsequent choices he makes as an adult.
From Hollywood, to New York, Paris, Ukraine and Washington D.C., Nick, Alicia, Bee, Christine, and a circle of strangers come together to form a family. Their support, compassion, and love offer relief from the horrors of the past and the promise and hope of a better tomorrow.
