Now available in large print--Father Tim takes on a new challenge in this inspirational installment in the beloved Mitford series by the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Bathed in Prayer. Father Tim Kavanagh has been asked to come up higher more than once. But hes never been asked to do the impossible--until now. The retired Episcopal priest takes on the revival of a mountain church thats been closed for forty years. Meanwhile, in Mitford, hes sent on a hunt for hidden treasure, and two beloved friends are called to come up higher as well. As Father Tim finds, there are still plenty of heartfelt surprises, dear friends old and new, and the most important lesson of all: Its never too late.About the AuthorJan Karon, born Janice Meredith Wilson in the foothills of North Carolina, was named after the title of a popular novel, Janice Meredith.Jan wrote her first novel at the age of ten. The manuscript was written on Blue Horse notebook paper, and was, for good reason, kept hidden from my sister. When she found it, she discovered the one curse word I had, with pounding heart, included in someones speech. For Petes sake, hadnt Rhett Butler used that very same word and gotten away with it? After my grandmothers exceedingly focused reproof, Ive written books without cussin ever since.Several years ago, Karon left a successful career in advertising to move to the mountain village of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, and write books. I stepped out on faith to follow my lifelong dream of being an author, she says. I made real sacrifices and took big risks. But living, it seems to me, is largely about risk.Enthusiastic booksellers across the country have introduced readers of all ages to Karons heartwarming books. At Home in Mitford, Karons first book in the Mitford series, was nominated for an ABBY by the American Booksellers Association in 1996 and again in 1997. Bookstore owner, Shirley Sprinkle, says, The Mitford Books have been our all-time fiction bestsellers since we went in business twenty-five years ago. Weve sold 10,000 of Jans books and dont see any end to the Mitford phenomenon.
