Publisher's summary

Kirkus Reviews "Best Indie Book of 2021"

Still the Night Call is about Calem Dewayne Honeycutt, a 32-year-old Missouri dairy farmer of few words. But just because he's quiet doesn't mean he's simple. In fact, Calem's internal voice eloquently leads us through his wondrous yet tortured past, his fears for the future of his beleaguered rural world, and his carefully laid plans to remedy the vicious Night Call that haunts his present. All he has to do is get through one last day on the farm, then he can free himself of being a straight, white, middle-aged man with nothing in his possession but a gun and a prayer.

Through the eyes of Calem, Still the Night Call delves into the quickly diminishing world of Midwestern farmers whose livelihoods have become fodder for politicians and trade wars while their traditional values have become the subject of scorn and culture wars. The result is a struggling working class whose worth has been reduced to mirthless caricatures and economic dust, and who are desperately looking for hope anywhere they might find it.

A tantalizing story that gripped me from the first page

Brutally honest, but eloquent. The author weaves in authenticity, complexity and the sometimes simple language used to portray life, relationships it’s many challenges - just astounding.

Whether you go in with an open mind or not, it’s sure to open heart.

Grippingly Told

A timely exploration and haunting tale, Senter’s novel is masterfully written. Particularly enjoyed the Audible version. True poetry.
