MY WILLOW by Bud Lang
As 1929 draws to a close, New York City detective Johanna Kelly is tired, body and soul. It’s not just because of her male colleagues’ bad attitudes. Soon her growing pregnancy will be revealed, and she will be fired. But until that happens, Kelly is still on the job. A few months ago the market crashed.

The Runaway Pastor is a fictional vessel for this gifted communicator to surface a message of truth that resides deep within our hearts and resonates with those of us who wish to somehow find and know grace. -Jeff Stoffer, author, screenwriter, editor,...
