There’s A Hidden Beauty In Betrayal
Sean’s serene childhood turns to tortured adolescence when Reggie steals his best girlfriend, Kathleen. He leaves Southern California to travel to Chicago for mission aviation training.
But he’s shaken, doubting his childhood faith, and telling people he’s an atheist — at a Bible Institute! How can he find the road back to faith—and Kathleen?
Parts of the novel draw deeply on the author’s own life experiences (but I’m not telling which parts)!
