Charles Martin has written one of my favourite books of all time, When Crickets Cry. I read it before my reviewing started so haven’t ever done a formal review of it ~ maybe I should ~ it is an amazing read. I was very excited to see Charles has a novel releasing in July, 2008 from Random House. Here’s a peek:~
Publisher’s Synopsis:~
A powerfully emotional and beautifully written story of heartbreaking loss and undying love
He was a fishing guide and struggling artist from a south George trailer park. She was the beautiful only child of South Carolina’s most powerful senator. Yet once Doss Michaels and Abigail Grace Coleman met by accident, they each felt they’d found their true soul mate. Ten years into their marriage, when Abbie faces a life-threatening illness, Doss battles it with her every step of the way. And when she makes a list of ten things she hopes to accomplish before she loses the fight for good, Doss is there, too, supporting her and making everything possible. Together they steal away in the middle of the night to embark upon a 130-mile trip down the St. Mary’s River—a voyage Doss promised Abbie in the early days of their courtship.
Where the River Ends chronicles their love-filled, tragedy-tinged journey and a bond that transcends all.

MMMMmmmm!! I love Charles Martin’s books. My hubby does too – which is weird ’cause he usually doesn’t read. I’m excited he’s coming out with a new one! 🙂
