Possibly because this is the story of a family and primarily that of a 13 year old boy, Frank Dunn, preacher's son. However for me there was not enough action/intrigue. The writing is easy to follow and the story is well developed. It was first published in 2013, 307 pages and a reading guide with discussion questions in the back. The bookseller suggested this would be a good start for me. I had never read any of his books so I purchased this one at the others in talk because it is a stand alone novel compared to his Cork O'Conner mystery series. The author is well known, acclaimed, and lives in the Twin Cities. In May the local library hosted this MN author who is extremely popular locally as throughout the state.
