As you read this, hundreds of women -- daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, cousins, girlfriends, wives -- are being raped this country.

In every hour of every day, the lives of over 800 women are destroyed by sexual violence.

Every hour.

House of Venus Publishing Company announces the release of a provocative new novel which confronts the issue of violence against women and children.

The Immaculate Perception: A Life's Journey challenges traditional thought processes and learnings by charting the life of one extraordinary woman in her search for understanding.

In an astonishing turning point, she wakes to find God in her bed, literally. And she demands to know why he allows such violence.

Embarking on an incredible journey through the majestic layers of the Universe and the Biblical pages of the past, God and the woman explore the laws of nature versus the laws of humans versus the laws of God, what is God's will and what is not and who is responsible for what.

In the end, the woman is rewarded with the culmination of her own ultimate destiny.

This exciting and fascinating work of fiction, written by first-time novelist Karon Aghotte-Rice, skillfully blends the fun and adventure of a young girl's coming of age with both the anguish and exhuberance that comes with the discovery and acceptance of truth and understanding.
