Cover Reveal - Grace Triumphant by Alicia A. Willis
I'm honored to
participate in the cover reveal of talented author Alicia Willis's new
historical fiction novel, Grace Triumphant. I have read most of her
previous works, and her novel, From the Dark to the Dawn, is the best
fiction book I have read this year, and Grace Triumphant looks like it will be as powerful as From the Dark to the Dawn. Coming November 2015. I can't wait.
Synopsis
Profligate London,
1788. Slave ships haunt the seas, bearing human cargos to further the
wealth of the rich and destroy the souls of the slave traffickers.
Russell
Lawrence is an avid skeptic. Captain of the slave ship Barbados,
wealthy, and a respected leader, he views religion as a crutch for the
weak. But when the debauchery of the slave trade begins to destroy his
good morals, his battle becomes more than fighting pirates and
mutineers. What if there really is a God?
Impressed as a cabin boy, Jack Dunbar sees his forced service on the Barbados as a God-given opportunity to witness Christ to the crew. When his efforts to influence the hardened slavers seems to be doing little, running away seems his best option. But the punishment for desertion is harsh. And is returning to the life he once knew worth ruining the work he’s tried to do for the Lord?
Back in Grosvenor Square, Elizabeth Grey battles opposition from society and her self-seeking fiancée. Her work with John Newton to end the slave trade is being harshly attacked. She faces life branded as a jilter and radical if she stands up for what she believes in. Will she ever glean the strength to call sin by its rightful name?
A tale of adventure on the high seas, redemption, and faith. Sin abounds. Is grace enough to conquer doubt and triumph over evil?
Join me in awaiting this awesome-sounding historical fiction novel by Alicia A. Willis. November is too far away to wait for!
Soli Deo Gloria,
