A Little Hope eBook

£8.99

Description

Celebrating the grace in everyday life, this powerful novel follows the lives of a dozen neighbours in an idyllic Connecticut town over the course of a year, as they confront everyday fears and desires: a lost love, a stalled career, an illness and a betrayal.

At the heart of these interlinking stories is one couple, Freddie and Greg Tyler who seem to have it all: a comfortable home, beautiful daughter and a happy marriage. But when Greg is diagnosed with cancer, the sense of certainty they once knew evaporates.

Immersing the reader in a community of friends, family, and neighbours, A Little Hope identifies the ways that love and forgiveness can help us survive even the most difficult of life’s challenges.
