false 3925795 3 The tragic deaths of her mother and two younger siblings have left Grace Harmon responsible for raising her sister Miriam and protecting her from their abusive father, Luther, a zealot preacher with a penchant for speaking in Biblical verse who is on a downward spiral toward insanity. Otto Singer charms Grace with his gentle courtship and devotion to his brother, Henry. But after their marriage, Otto is unable to share with Grace the terrible secret he has kept more than twenty years. Otto believes he is responsible for a tragic accident that claimed the life of a young woman and left Henry severely brain damaged. Luther's insane ravings and increasingly violent behavior force Grace to question and reassess the patriarchal religious beliefs of her childhood. Then tragedy strikes just when Otto's secret is uncovered, unleashing demons that threaten to destroy the entire family. Can Grace find the strength to save them, and in the process find her own redemption? Redeeming Grace is set on Maryland's eastern shore in the late 1920's. The book will appeal to lovers of literary fiction who enjoy theological debate and who understand happy endings, in novels as in life, sometimes come at a heavy price. 3971314 2004 Redeeming Grace total:6|5:5|4:1|3:0|2:0|1:0| 6 29 11 1 5 1 false false Sun Oct 25 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 10:56:33 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 10:12:50 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Wed Oct 28 09:47:23 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 28 09:47:23 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 25 12:21:21 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 25 12:21:21 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Sep 30 08:50:06 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 30 08:50:06 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Jun 17 05:53:06 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 17 05:53:06 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Apr 05 04:41:50 -0700 2009 Sun Apr 05 04:41:50 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Dec 23 23:03:40 -0800 2008 Sat Jul 11 09:42:54 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 14 09:20:01 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 14 09:20:01 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sun Sep 14 09:19:54 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 14 09:19:54 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Sep 12 08:22:34 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 12 08:22:34 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Jul 25 06:48:36 -0700 2008 Fri Jul 25 06:48:36 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3925795
