Synopsis

When faced with adversity, can a rising gospel star learn the true rhythms of grace? After joining a traveling gospel choir, Shar Gracey is eager to tour the country, meet new people, and earn money to pay for her ailing mother’s medical care . . . everything she thinks she needs to make her heart sing. But is Shar really ready for life on the road? Long bus trips and less than hospitable conditions of the 1930s may be too much for her. While she gets to work with the great Thomas A. Dorsey and Mahalia Jackson, she also falls under the influence of the not-so-great Nicoli James, who seems to be marching to his own beat. After an unexpected betrayal, Shar returns home to the man she left behind. Can Pastor Landon help Shar regain her voice—and show her the sweet, sweet sound of God’s grace? ---------- “Vanessa Miller hits all the right notes in her engaging book.
