MEDIA ADVISORY, Sept. 23, 2026 /Standard Newswire/ — What if the impossible happened again?
That is the question at the center of Daughter of God (ISBN 978-1-63763-576-6; $29), the debut novel from author Liam K. Scott on sale Oct. 20, 2026.
Part political thriller, part meditation on faith, Daughter of God explores the aftermath of a modern-day virgin birth in the last place the government allows.
Told across four countries and multiple faith traditions, Daughter of God is a profound mashup of literary and spiritual fiction.
“I wanted to ask a question that most of us are too polite, or too afraid, to ask out loud,” said Scott. “What would we actually do if the sacred showed up in the middle of our very modern, very surveilled world?
Set in the underground churches of 1990’s China, Scott brings young Li Ying–a quiet, devout young woman whose faith has always been practiced in secret–to life. When she discovers she is miraculously pregnant, her insistence that the child was conceived by God sets off a chain of events that puts everyone she loves in danger. As state authorities close in, Ying and her partner,
Cheng, are forced to flee, carrying the unborn child and embracing a destiny that cannot stay contained within any one border, culture, or belief system.
The miracle child, Jia, is not of the world. From infancy she quietly defies expectation, bringing calm where there is violence and healing where there is brokenness. Fate eventually leads her to America, where Jia’s purpose comes into focus, and her spiritual gifts are met with both devotion and violent rejection.
From underground Catholic churches to Tibetan monasteries and the streets of India to the crossroads of Hong Kong, Daughter of God unfolds as a global chase and an intimate story of love and sacrifice built around a single haunting question: what happens when faith collides with authority, and a miracle refuses to remain hidden?
Scott’s Daughter of God doesn’t flinch from hard questions while finding meaning in the collision between institutional power and individual conviction, and what ordinary people are willing to risk for a truth they cannot prove.
