What to expect
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.
