Life Is Never As It SeemsKensington Books, 2008 M03 1 - 352 pages Lindy Lee comes from a family of preachers and secrets. Her grandfather, Reverend Perlie Johnson, like his father before him, is minister to a Baptist congregation, which reveres him. It is 1967 in Washington, D.C., and the streets and the media are filled with turmoil. Reverend Johnson intends to keep his daughter, granddaughter and congregation out of harm's way and obedient to their Christian faith. Nevertheless, Lindy receives "messages" from Mary Magdalene through visions that threaten his religious teachings and leadership of the church. And as if Lindy's life weren't complicated enough. She is torn between Nick who has his own secrets and the mysterious Paul that Keeps appearing and disappearing from her life. Her only salvation seems to be the Awakeners, a group of New Age seekers. Or are they? |
