A visit to his aunt was met with little more than a cool greeting and a stale piece of cake. She asked Allen why he was looking for his father now after all these years. “You’re a grown man,” she insisted. “You don’t need to go chasing after that no-account drifter.” Aunt Thelma’s advice was to leave well enough alone. Allen didn’t take it.
Rejected by his kin, abandoned at an orphanage, Allen grew up to be bitter and distrustful. Now grown, he longs to know why his father did not care for him and his mother. Which of the conflicting stories about his real father should he believe? In search of answers, Allen follows sketchy clues to Almelund, Minnesota where he finds himself drawn ever deeper into the dark secrets of a family in turmoil. Can Allen’s new-found faith in Jesus Christ keep him undefiled? And why is the threshing crew boss out to destroy him?
* Enjoy drama, intrigue, and adventure from a true storyteller.
* Taste a bit of American farm life in the first half of the twentieth century.
* Relate to “common people” characters plunged into heartache, hurt, and danger.
* Be inspired and uplifted as grace and forgiveness prevail over doubt and fear.
