A sophisticated computer matchmaking service goes horribly awry in this high-tech thriller by bestselling writer Lincoln Child.

Wardlin Stuart, serving a 10-year prison sentence for killing a man in a bar fight, develops something he calls prayerstyle--a supposedly purely secular method of supplicating the universe for minor requests. Amazingly, prayerstyle actually works, and as a result of its application, Wardlin finds the love of his life, marries her, and is paroled. When he publishes a book including his prayers and a guide to his method, it becomes a runaway success...and a threat to Monroe Treat, a power-hungry televangelist. Wardlin finds both fame and the relentless onslaught of Treat's followers challenging enough, but matters are made more complicated by the fact that the metaphorical figure to whom many of Wardlin's prayers are addressed, the Lord of Loneliness, may have an objective reality. Lucius Shepard, a writer known primarily for his literary SF, ventures considerably farther out into the mainstream with this haunting exploration of faith and organized religion in America.
