“Never, ever give up hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.” Pope John Paul II

A new book by Karen Kier!

In the small town of Glen Rock, Iowa, Sally Andersen, owner of the neighborhood bakery, finds the dead body of a high school athlete while out running the local trails with her dog Goldie. She soon learns that it’s the body of a boy that sometimes works for her after school and on weekends and who’s also befriended her sister, Nora, who is autistic. Learning that he died of a fentanyl overdose, Sally sets out to ensure this same type of tragedy doesn’t happen again in their community. But will the risks to her, her family, and the friends who try to help her be too much?

Coming soon to Amazon, Kindle & bookstores near you!
