Summary
Stanley Moss is a retired florist, stricken with cancer, and living quietly with his wife Frieda in Edmonton. One day, Stanley experiences a boom and a flash, and then discovers that he has the strength of ten men, can read… minds and fulfill people's dreams - and his illness has vanished. He and his disciples start The Stan, a new religion, and invite the world to join, but when the world shows up, along with the international media and an angry long-dead spiritualist, things take an unexpected turn. Some descriptions of violence and sex. Some strong language. c2007.
