The Christmas Bell (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In a town held together by one old bell, Christmas has always been measured in sound.

For generations, the bell in the white-steepled church has marked everything that mattered: births and funerals, mill shifts and homecomings, twelve slow strokes each Christmas Eve to say, "You made it through another year." When a deep crack is discovered in its frame, the town is told the truth nobody wants to hear. If they ring it this Christmas, the bell could fall. If they sell it for scrap, a stranger's truck will haul away the sound that has held their lives together.

Jace Harper, a recovering addict stocking shelves at the dollar store, is one hearing away from losing the right to see his little girl without supervision. One bad decision and those two hours are gone. Mae Walker, a stubborn widow still keeping the lights on at the hardware store her husband built, is three months from losing everything the Walker name stands for. Down at the highway station, Rosa Velasquez works the graveyard shift, counting every dollar twice to keep her son in one piece of solid ground. When an unclaimed envelope of cash lands in her hands, she has to decide whether "doing the right thing" still applies in a world that rarely returns the favor.

Hank Bishop, a retired lineman who walks town at night tightening porch bulbs, can see what a cracked brace in a steeple really means. Pastor Eli Ward is out of easy answers and almost out of faith, expected to stand in a silent sanctuary on Christmas Eve and somehow tell people that God still sees them when the one sound they have trusted most has gone quiet.

As Christmas Eve closes in, small choices ripple wider than anyone expects: a wrench bought with crumpled bills, a boy who walks away from "quick money," a woman who refuses to sell the town's heart by the pound, a pastor who shows up even when he feels empty. The bell may hang silent in the cold steeple, but down in the streets, trailers, and tired kitchens, ordinary people are deciding what kind of sound their lives will make when the sky is listening.

The Christmas Bell is a small-town Christmas novel about addiction and mercy, poverty and stubborn hope, and the quiet courage it takes to keep loving a place that keeps breaking your heart. For anyone who has ever loved a broken town, raised a trembling hand to ask for help, or wondered if grace could possibly still find them after everythingthis story rings for you.
