Married and the father of a young daughter, John Bevan had finally found the traditional family he lacked as an orphaned child. But all that disappears when a fatal car accident steals away his wife-and the unborn child she carried.

Filled with sorrow, John withdraws from life and love. He erects a small cross at the scene of his wife's accident and visits daily, grieving. Then one morning he encounters a young man kneeling before the cross, touching it up with white paint. John's conversations and travels with this mysterious man-known to him only as the Cross Gardener-will forever change his world.

From Jason F. Wright comes a timeless tale that explores the questions we ask when our lives are touched by loss: How do we carry on? And who will show us the way? The answers John Bevan finds illuminate the hope that even in our darkest hours we are not alone.

<UL> <LI>Is global warming a reality that deserves serious attention or a myth perpetuated by leftist scientists and Hollywood liberals? <LI>Does America's mainstream media bring you unbiased, unfiltered news, or is there a legitimate liberal media bias that paints their reporting? <LI>Do liberals get a bad rap as being soft on defense or do they really operate under the "John Kerry Global Test" doctrine that requires international permission slips to defend America?</UL>

All good questions you might ask your neighbor, your know-it-all brother-in-law, or Dan Rather from CBS.

Or you could ask someone with more than 20 years' experience in politics and public policy.

A good op-ed writer aims to change minds. In Mr. Landrith's first collection of high-octane opinion editorials, he just might change yours.
