Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. I love it when a new book comes out, but
particularly when it’s a book I wrote.
Allow me to introduce GOLDEN, my latest novel.
While many of my books are for
the mainstream market, this one is for Latter-day Saints-- however,
anyone could read and enjoy it. In fact,
whenever I write Mormon books, I write them with that in mind. I picture someone handing this book to a
non-Mormon friend, and then the friend reading it and gaining some insights
into what we’re really like (and how funny we are). I read Catholic and Jewish literature, and
shame on you if you don’t love Nobel Prize winner Isaac Bashevis Singer.
But back to GOLDEN. This is the story of a completely normal
family with three challenging children, two parents who are doing their best
but are terrified of their new church assignments, and what happens when they
take on The Witch House, a local spooky mansion, as a project. It has everything life offers—tricky relationships,
life and death moments, spiritual anguish, consequences of terrible decisions,
moments of faith and redemption, chances to grow, even surprises and laughter.
I hope you’ll click on thislink and order it—and then order it again to give as gifts! (Kindle readers can find it here)
