This wonderful story transforms quite literally from being a seemingly routine 'whodunnit', to sweeping you along on a deeply spiritual journey. Mackenzie Allen Philips' daughter was abducted, and evidence that she may have been murdered was found in an abandoned shack deep in the wilderness. Years later, still in the midst of his resultant great sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. What he finds there changes Mack's world forever. William P Young's vivid and sensitive story considers some of the most difficult feelings to reconcile when dealing with our concepts of and life with God. He brooches forgiveness, guilt, blame, anger and revenge, and the question so often asked during hard times: 'Why did God allow that to happen?' What binds together everything that happens is love. Importantly, you are not expected to simply accept everything that happens to Mack as some sort of new theological textbook, rather to embark on your own journey, exploring your belief and trust in God, whatever your spiritual or religious commitment. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. 248pp, 128mm x 196, softback, 2008
