Mary E. DeMuth
Acerca de esta escucha
Mary DeMuth, an acclaimed author and advocate who has been featured in Christianity Today, CNN, and The Washington Post, brings a uniquely empathetic voice to her storytelling. In Daisy Chain, DeMuth draws on her understanding of brokenness and redemption to craft an achingly beautiful coming-of-age story that delves into human frailty and God's surprising redemption.
The abrupt disappearance of young Daisy Chance from a small Texas town in 1973 spins three lives out of control--Jed, whose guilt over not protecting his friend Daisy strangles him; Emory Chance, who blames her own choices for her daughter's demise; and Ouisie Pepper, who is plagued by headaches while pierced by the shattered pieces of a family in crisis.
In this first book in the Defiance, Texas Trilogy, fourteen-year-old Jed Pepper has a sickening secret: He's convinced it's his fault his best friend Daisy went missing. Jed's pain sends him on a quest for answers to mysteries woven through the fabric of his own life and the lives of the families of Defiance, Texas. When he finally confronts the terrible truths he's been denying all his life, Jed must choose between rebellion and love, anger and freedom.
Daisy Chain is "a coming-of-age novel in the classic Southern gothic tradition," praised for its "complex relationships, skilled prose, and depiction of God's redemption in difficult times" (Library Journal). Perfect for fans of The Little Friend by Donna Tartt, this haunting yet hopeful novel invites readers to wrestle with life's hardest questions while discovering the beauty of grace.
Step into the world of Defiance, Texas, where secrets fester, redemption waits, and every choice carries the weight of eternity. Start Daisy Chain today and experience a story that will linger in your heart long after you finish listening.

Patricia Campbell's life has never felt smaller. Her ambitious husband is too busy to give her a goodbye kiss in the morning, her kids have their own lives, her senile mother-in-law needs constant care, and she's always a step behind on thank-you notes and her endless list of chores. The one thing she has to look forward to is her book club, a close-knit group of Charleston women united by their love of true crime and paperback fiction. At these meetings they're as likely to talk about the Manson family as they are marriage, motherhood, and neighborhood gossip.

She hopes to please the man, but things go horribly wrong and she is forced to flee for her life. Seeking safety at one of the Levitical cities of refuge, she is unprepared for the dangers she faces, and the enemies - and allies - she encounters on her way. Seven years ago, Moriyah was taken captive in Jericho and branded with the mark of the Canaanite gods. Now the Israelites are experiencing peace in their new land, but Moriyah has yet to find her own peace. Because of the shameful mark on her face, she hides behind her veil at all times.

Eleven-year-old Grace Carter has a talent for hiding things. She's had plenty of practice, burying thoughts and feelings that might anger her strict evangelical pastor father. The Knowing, as Grace calls it, offers glimpses of people's pasts and futures. It enables her to see into the depth of her mother's sadness, and even allows Grace to talk to Isaac, her twin brother who died at birth. To her wise, loving Aunt Pearl, the Knowing is a family gift; to her daddy, it's close to witchcraft.

Love her descriptions!!!
Mary E. DeMuth is a very good writer. I love her descriptions. However, in the three books there is very little story, and it moves very slow. Her characters tend to say "I'm sorry" and "you hear me" real often. Even so, the books are a pleasant read.

Can't wait for the book!
It was a great story except I felt several times the story line dragged on much too long then it ended to abruptly. I just noticed on the cover the word trilogy so I'll have to wait for book two to get the answers to the ending that left me hanging.
