ST. AUGUSTINE AND THE ABDUCTIONAn Historical Novel of SuspenseIn yet another in his series of clergy mystery novels, Dr. Larsen turns here to the fascinating and towering theologian and preacher, Aurelius Augustine of Hippo in North Africa. The life of this champion of the doctrine of grace is set over against his early licentious life-style and the son Adeodatus whom his concubine of fifteen years bore to him. Now after his conversion in Milan and his subsequent return to North Africa and his bishopric in Hippo, Augustine is shattered by the apparent abduction of his son. Who has taken him and where is he? While he pursues all availble options, we learn why Augustine moved from a free choice understanding of salvation to determinism and why he shifted from historic premillennialism to birth what we know as amillennialism. The solution addresses a scenario that strict historical research cannot address.
