The Unfinished Gift: A Novel by Dan Walsh, is another one of those heartwarming festive holiday redemption tales, free courtesy of Christian publisher Baker's Revell imprint.
Currently free @
B&N,
Sony (available to Canadians), and
Christian Book (available worldwide).
The other previous Revell Xmas-themed freebies all disappeared within a day or so, so you'd better grab this as quickly as you see it (especially if you're a Sony person, since I think they switchover their freebies somewhere around 8pm Pacific Time).
And it would be appreciated if people who manage to spot it elsewhere would post an update so others could grab it from their preferred stores, too.
Description
Can a gift from the past mend a broken heart?
Ian Collins is an old man without his son. Patrick Collins is a young boy without his father. On his Christmas list are only three items. He wants the army to find his father. He wants to leave his grandfather's house. And he wants the dusty wooden soldier in Grandfather's attic--the one he is forbidden to touch.
Set at Christmastime in 1943, The Unfinished Gift is the engaging story of a family in need of forgiveness. With simple grace, it reminds us of the small things that affect powerful change in our hearts--a young boy's prayers, a shoe box of love letters, and even a half-carved soldier, long forgotten. This nostalgic story of reconciliation will touch your heart.
