Edge of Summer
Seven-year-old Annie Ghere’s quiet summer in Jeffries, Indiana takes a dark turn when she discovers a dead stranger in the creek near her home. Determined to solve the mystery, Annie teams up with her sister Gem, cousin Charlie, and friend Bernard to investigate. Their amateur detective work leads them through encounters with the town’s eccentric residents—Hector Toops, Sheriff Clyde Boggs, Biddy Ann Blout, and the mysterious hobos, Jimbo and Skeeter—as they try to identify the dead man and uncover his connection to a secret Annie shares with her mother. As the children get closer to the truth, Annie struggles with the weight of her secret while the situation becomes increasingly complicated. With summer ending and her fate uncertain, Annie faces the reality that this mystery will change her life forever.
Christmas Angels
Just as the first signs of the Christmas season began tickling her imagination, Anna watched in anguish as her beloved father walk away from her family’s home, her mother seemingly indifferent to the loss. Did the secret she’d kept from her parents for far too long cause the ultimate break in their already fragile marriage? Then a random act of kindness brought an extraordinary woman into her life, sparking an incredible series of miracles that touched the entire town. Amidst the miracles that occurred during the Christmas season of 1933, Annie had only one prayer…that the angels would reignite the embers of love between her parents and bring her family back together again…forever.
