The Reckoning at Gossamer Pond

De: Jaime Jo Wright

Narrado por: Erin Bennett

For over a century, the town of Gossamer Grove has thrived on its charm and midwestern values, but Annalise Forsythe knows painful secrets, including her own, hover just beneath the pleasant facade. When a man is found dead in his run-down trailer home, Annalise inherits the trailer, along with the pictures, vintage obituaries, and old revival posters covering its walls. As she sorts through the collection, she's wholly unprepared for the ramifications of the dark and deadly secrets she'll uncover.

A century earlier, Gossamer Grove has been stirred into chaos by the arrival of controversial and charismatic twin revivalists. The chaos takes a murderous turn when Libby Sheffield, working at her father's newspaper, receives an obituary for a reputable church deacon hours before his death. As she works with the deacon's son to unravel the mystery behind the crime, it becomes undeniably clear that a reckoning has come to town - but it isn't until another obituary arrives that they realize the true depths of the danger they've waded into.

Two women, separated by a hundred years, must uncover the secrets within the borders of their own town before it's too late and they lose their future - or their very souls.

Engaging and well narrated

Wonderful, engaging story spanning two different time periods that unfolds the importance of honesty, dropping stones of judgement and embracing grace. Excellent narration.

Enjoyable

Thoroughly enjoyed this story and the narration! I like how the story unfolds piece by piece for the two different time periods and I was surprised by the ending.

amazing

I loved this book. It's been hard trying to find books that are Christian but, also not like listening to a really long sermon. This is the number one book I would recommend for someone looking for a good Christian book that's full of action, romance, and adventure. I had a hard time turning this book off at night it was so good one time I was up until 1:30a.m. just listening to this book. only reason this isn't a five star is that I wish that the author wrote more in Libby's story.

A Look at Two Centuries

JWright
The action was a little confusing at first because of the two different ages with separate protagonists and an additional cast of characters. But the ending is so worth the read.

Wonderful Story of Grace

This was a heartfelt and riveting story of grace and the impact of it being given, or withheld, and how hard it can be to receive. I found myself not wanting the story to end having become so invested in the characters. Looking forward to more books by Jamie Jo Wright.
