UNVEILING THE PAST
A Novel
Mysteries, family secrets, and learning to love and trust again rest at the heart of this contemporary novel from the bestselling author of Bringing Maggie Home.
Newlyweds and cold case detectives Sean and Meghan Eagle have been given the task of investigating the twenty-years-past disappearance of a husband and father, Anson Menke. A judge ruled that the missing man chose to leave the country and abandon his family, but his wife wouldn't concede that he left his family nor declare him dead. Their mother now gone, his children want answers.
As Sean and Meghan follow the man's last know steps, they also involve themselves in a more personal investigation: locating Meghan's biological father. As Meghan struggles with her work and her new role as a wife, she fears failing. She doesn't want to hurt Sean or damage the investigation into the missing Anson Menke. Diane DeFord, Meghan's mother, sees her daughter's turmoil and decides to take action in Meghan's personal search, potentially reuniting her daughter with her father. As the two searches intertwine, Meghan must become vulnerable with Sean, letting him into her life and being a true partner, while letting her heart be tender to God, the One who truly knows the journey each disrupted life needed to take to Him.
BEST-SELLING AUTHOR: With over 1 million books in print, Kim Vogel Sawyer is the author best known for her gentle stories of hope, giving readers a strong, Christian story, and her novels regularly appear on Christian fiction bestseller lists.
CONTEMPORARY NOVEL REVISITING FAMILIAR CHARACTERS: Kim's beloved 2017 novel, Bringing Maggie Home, was described as "beautiful, deep, and engaging" by Cindy Woodsmall. Meghan and her mother -- key characters from Bringing Maggie Home - are main characters in this novel, which CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE as well. Meghan is still a detective and searching for answers in a new mystery while her mother works to repair connections from the past.
KEY VERSE: Kim always has a verse from the Bible that sits at the heart of a novel as a theme. Her key verse for Unveiling the Past is Psalm 68:5 (NIV) "A father to the fatherless ... is God in his holy dwelling" which emphasizes that while biological parents may fail their children, God is there as a heavenly father.
CONNECTED TO READERS: Sawyer presents to women's groups around the country several times a year, talking about her personal story of overcoming tragic experiences and chronic pain, her years as a single mother, and living with hope and purpose.
