Bringing Maggie Home: a novel by Kim Vogel Sawyer

Bringing Maggie Home was a very good read.  It was sad and happy, suspenseful and humorous.  It is a story of how childhood wounds can scar long into adulthood and affect generations to come.  It is also a story of the power of forgiveness and the hope of redemption.  It reminds us of the need for grace with each other, but most of all from God.

I really enjoyed each of the four main characters in this book: 80 year old Hazel, her daughter Diane, Diane's daughter Meghan, and Meghan's detective partner Sean. Different sections of each chapter are told through the eyes of one these characters, which I love.  It's so interesting to see the events of the book unfold with the various perspectives of these characters. 

The book is part mystery, part love story, and contains some interesting twists and turns.  I'm sure anyone who enjoys a well-written contemporary Christian fiction book will love it!  I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
