April's Rain

Tucker, Book 3

By: David Johnson

Narrated by: Laural Merlington

Eight years after losing her closest friend, Tucker struggles to keep her rebellious, self-destructive granddaughter under control. When April accidentally kills her boyfriend while defending herself from his attack, Judge Jack helps Tucker ferry her granddaughter away to Spirit Lake, a remote treatment facility in the mountains of eastern Tennessee. There, April creates a false identity, painting herself as a young socialite, and blocks Tucker's attempts at communication.

Tucker's grandson March, missing for eight years, is discovered half-dead, having lost both his sight and his memories. As he recovers, March's blindness persists but fragments of his life reemerge. When he finds himself at Spirit Lake, he runs headlong into his past.

Will Tucker be able to reunite her family after their paths have splintered?

Poweerful, intense, inspiring, & beautiful!

Novels simply do not get better than David Johnson's 5 book Tucker series. April's Rain, her tears, is Book 3. I had to stop for lighter fare after Book 2 due to the intensity. Now I'm ready for March On which is book 4. Laural Merlington narrates the audiobook and she does a great job.

Book 5, Who Will Hear Me When I Cry, is not available (yet?) in audiobook format, so I guess I'll have to read it in Kindle ebook format. Audible, how about Book 5?

My genres of choice are all in the mystery/thriller category, but I am very happy I found this contemporary fiction series.

I recommend this series with one reservation: avowed atheists may not like the religious aspect which is present but not overwhelming. It is certainly far less intensely religious then novels by Catherine Coulter or Joel C Rosenberg.

I love this series!

I love this book series. I love this family and the love they have for one another.

Love This Family

April's Rain my favorite book in the series so far. It is spiritual but not preachy. The story is interesting, I love the detailed descriptions of geography and the characters range of emotions. The dialogue is straightforward yet the quality of writing far exceeds most of what I read today. The narrator is excellent.

Book four here I come!

I have truly enjoyed and fell in love with the Tucker family. There story is a story of hope for everyone. Struggles eventually pass but hope last forever.

At first I wasn't sure I was going to enjoy this installment because the format was different but after I got thru the first 30 mins I understood why it had to be that way.

Loved April's Rain

This was long. The suspense kept me interested in finding out what kept this family apart.
