WINNER OF THE 2014 EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL. New
Bremen, Minnesota, 1961. The Twins were playing their debut
season, ice-cold root beers were selling out at the soda counter
of Halderson’s Drugstore, and Hot Stuff comic books were a
mainstay on every barbershop magazine rack. It was a time of
innocence and hope for a country with a new, young president.
But for thirteen-year-old Frank Drum it was a grim summer in
which death visited frequently and assumed many forms. Accident.
Nature. Suicide. Murder. Told from Frank’s perspective forty
years after that fateful summer, Ordinary Grace is a brilliantly
moving account of a boy standing at the door of his young
manhood, trying to understand a world that seems to be falling
apart around him. It is an unforgettable novel about discovering
the terrible price of wisdom and the enduring grace of God.
Characters: 67. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre: Fiction.
