Description
Sixteen-year-old Grace McGonnell has been raised in an atmosphere of fear, submission and isolation. Hidden within a reclusive, fundamentalist cult, she possesses little knowledge of the outside world. What options does she have when her mother pressures her to marry a fellow cult member over twice her age? A man who, with her mother's consent, has stolen her innocence? Desperate, Grace runs away to Los Angeles with her new friend, Lydia. Without even the most basic skills needed to survive on their own, they find themselves trapped in a deadly world of prostitution and drug abuse. Years later, Grace, now a successful attorney in Atlanta, is shocked to learn that her sixteen-year-old niece, still living within the cult, also is being forced to marry a much older man. Grace is determined to save her niece at any cost. Even if it means confronting a past she would do anything to forget. Even if it means revealing, for the first time, the pain of that hidden past to her husband and children.
Also by Brent Nelson: "The Terrible, Wonderful Why," a sequel to "Grace of a Different God," based on the author's real-life story of his son's battle with cancer, and the life lessons learned as a result; and "The Warrior Way," a dystopian thriller about a Marine turned cop who fights to unravel two mysterious deaths at an orphanage in a newly-segregated world.
