商品簡介
The Color of God is an endearing adventure novel brimming with delightful characters in which a guarded woman, jarred by a chance encounter with a child in peril, dares to choose courage.The lives of Stratford's residents collide when a boy races through town on his bike and crashes through the window of Lillian Rose Blooms, the local flower shop. The injured boy's disappearance stuns the shopkeepers who leap into action, while Lillian is secretly swept into the boy's perilous life. Across town, the boy's mother Estelle--pregnant with her fifth child and facing cancer--is praying for a kindred spirit of support while her husband Anthony brazenly attempts to become New York City's mayor through any means necessary. Danger, manipulation and murder await anyone blocking his power-hungry plot. Through Estelle's gentle faith and Pastor Lars' devotion, Lillian finds the courage to unflinchingly face Anthony in court. Her battle for justice in the final act of The Color of God shows how, in a world of self-centered cynicism, where cultural, religious and ethnic differences divide us or force us into a false, homogenous lock-step oneness, Stratford presents another way. Humility displayed through sacrifice unites and celebrates the uniqueness of all people, and the grace found in community--through friendship, adoption, and family--displays the miraculous healing power of love in this tender tale.
