Not in the Heart

De: Chris Fabry

Narrado por: Chris Fabry

"I've found the only thing I can control is how well I tell the story and follow the truth.... The truth will always lead you to a good place." Truman Wiley used to report news stories around the world, but now the troubling headlines are his own. He’s out of work and out of touch with his family, but nothing keeps him awake at night more than his son's failing heart. With hospital bills mounting faster than Truman can gamble his life savings, it seems there’s no way out... until his estranged wife throws him a lifeline - the chance to write the story of a death row inmate willing to donate his heart to Truman’s son. As the execution clock ticks, Truman uncovers disturbing evidence that may point to a different killer. For his son to live, must an innocent man die?

As Truman’s investigation escalates, he’s forced to face his failures and make a choice that will change his life, his family, and the destinies of two men forever.

Any additional comments?

The gambling addiction of the main character was depressing and made it a little harder for me to identify with him or empathize with him. On the other hand, it was a moving example of a self centered, messed up individual who found forgiveness and redemption.

Awesome Story!

This is a gripping book from beginning to end! Loved that it was read by the author. Would definitely recommend this book!

a father doing the right thing

That Truman found his faith and trust in the Lord and earned the love and forgiveness of his family

I really liked this book!

It kept me listening because I really enjoyed the main character. He was funny because he he made fun of himself and had great commentary on the people in his life. He struggled with God and faith, his questions were relatable to many people for sure. It was the right amount of sentimentality with suspense and mystery too. I like when the author narrates because I often wonder if narrators get it right. This is my first Chris Fabry book, I’m sure I will read or listen to more!

This book has it all!

This author always hits “the high notes” in telling the story… and this book had everything a good story needs. Kudos Chris! You not only wrote the book but read it and nobody could have performed it any better!

Great book

Well written .. actually wandered around most of a weekend with earbuds in because it was so engaging. Would recommend book highly ... hadn't read anything from this author before and just loaded my cart with 3 more of his books. He reads his books so well too.. if he wasn't an author he would do well as an audio reader!! Loved it and it's surprise ending .. well worth the time!!

Excellent story writing!

Story was easy to get into and follow! Great writer and unique plot. Loved it and can’t wait to find another story to listen to.

Fantastic book!

Would you listen to Not in the Heart again? Why?

Definitely.....in a year or two. It reminded me to not judge people by what I see. It was heartwarming, a who done it, and just a beautiful book.

Which scene was your favorite?

I don't want to give anything away. I'll just say it was the last scene that took place in the governor's mansion.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It was interesting enough, but I prefer to stretch out and savor the really good books.

Any additional comments?

I'm not sure if this was classified under Christian fiction or not. It did have Christians in it, but did not read as "religious". If you aren't a believer, please don't let that stop you from getting this book. You won't be offended nor disappointed,

WOW!!!

This is our first Chris Fabry book ... and WOW! The storyline grabs you from the start. The countdown to execution is short. The end is worth the entire book! We never saw it coming, and wait til you find out the reason for the title of the book! Highly recommend it!!
