An interesting book that's more like a Platonic dialogue tha a novel. Three housemates, one of whom is a devout Catholic, go to Amsterdam for the weekend. Two of them, an agnostic and a lapsed Catholic, plan a weekend of debauchery. The Catholic does not. In the course of conversations over the weekend, Sean, the Catholic, privides a compelling case for belief to both Roger, the agnostic, and Paul, the lapsed Catholic.

The questions asked by Roger are good and Sean answers them correctly and well.

The book makes for great apologetic reading and is an excellent introduction to Catholicism.
