New Book....

See! See! My new book...I LOVE starting a new book...I love the smell, I love the unbroken spine, I love the unbent pages... I love picking out the perfect bookmark for my new adventure...
The special thing about his book, is that Carl picked it out for me. I couldn't decide which book to start...I have a stack of 6 different books...all brand spanking new...just waiting to be discovered...so I handed the stack to Carl and said "pick it for me". He "lovingly" sighed and read the back of each one, and put them all in order from " read this one first to read this one last"...so I'll start it tomorrow...here's what it's about...
-------------------------------------------
The day had started off normally for Judith Find. She’d grabbed her customary cup of coffee, conferred with her loyal assistant, and started in on the stack of work that was on her desk. As CEO of Find Inc. she always had a lot to do and this day was no different – until she realized that one of the envelopes on her desk was ringing. When Judith answers the phone inside the mysterious envelope, her world changes forever.
Luke Becker had started his day off normally, too. He might never have seen the envelope on his doorstep if he hadn’t gone out for his customary cup of coffee. Inside was a strange phone he’d never seen before, and it was ringing. If he’d never answered it, his life would have been a whole lot easier.
Both Luke and Judith have a secret. They’d both thought the secrets were long buried, but they were wrong. Someone is threatening to reveal those secrets if they don’t cooperate. And worse yet, a life is in danger. A boy that neither of them knows has been kidnapped, and if they don’t do exactly as the voice on the other end of the phone instructs, he will die.
FINDER’S FEE is suspenseful, cleverly written and full of twists and turns. Author Alton Gansky’s well-developed characters draw the reader into a fast-paced plot that will keep them on the edge of their seats. Layers of deception are peeled away, one by one, on their journey to enlightenment, much like a person’s real-life journey to faith and truth. Hidden between the cleverly crafted sentences, complex plot and ingenious characters is a message of spiritual growth. Gansky’s style of presenting the spiritual is almost shy, though his writing is certainly anything but inhibited. Brilliantly written, FINDER’S FEE covers a lot of territory from corporate corruption and sinister motives to bioengineering and fertility methods, yet it also manages to include a surprising spiritual message as well.
