An inspiring southern fiction story from the bestselling author of War RoomWhen eccentric millionaire Gideon Quidley receives a divine revelation to hide his earthly treasure somewhere in the hills, he sets out to find a fitting hiding spot, choosing only a few Bible verses as clues leading to untold riches of gold, silver, cash . . . and one very unexpected?and very costly?item.Treasure hunters descend upon the hills of West Virginia, including those surrounding the small town of Emmaus, where TD Lovett and Waite Evers provide the latest updates and the beating heart of the community on radio station Country 16. Neither man is much interested in a wild-goose chase for Quidley?s treasure, though. Waite is busy keeping the station afloat and caring for the bruised souls who have landed there. Meanwhile, TD?s more intent on winning over local junkyard owner Pidge Bledsoe, who has taken in a shy, wounded boy to raise.But after an estranged friend goes missing searching for the treasure, TD is unexpectedly drawn into the hunt.

Review Fabry (War Room) delivers a powerful story of faith and the material things people hold dear. After millionaire Gideon Quidley?s wife dies in 1974, Gideon feels led by God to hide all of his gold and silver?as well as thousands in cash?in a custom-built ark, bury it in the hills outside of Emmaus, W.Va., and leave only a list of cryptic Bible verses as clues to finding the treasure. . . . Local radio broadcaster TD Lovett gets involved in the treasure hunt after his friend and local pastor Robby Gardner goes missing during his search. . . . The winding narrative, which follows TD?s transformation from unwelcoming skeptic to enthusiastic believer, elevates themes of community and faith in God?s plan. This is Fabry?s best yet.Publishers WeeklyEvery title by Fabry (Borders of the Heart) draws readers into the story with clear, honest writing in a similar style to Charles Martin and Lynn Austin. The rural South comes to life, with themes of forgiveness and second chances as highlights. The characters are both deeply flawed and immensely relatable, making this another hit for Fabry.Library Journal Review A Piece of the Moon represents what I love most about fiction: the ability a novel has to transport you to another place in time. Fabry?s voice as a writer is engaging and dripping with charm and nostalgia. It took me back to the years of small radio stations and the earthy music of the old days. The fact that it comes with its own playlist is a brilliant way to reintroduce some of the great music of the past to new audience. A fantastic story written by an absolute treasure of a human being. I highly recommendA Piece of the Moon (and by the way, isn?t that a great title!).Cindy Morgan, author and Grammy nomineeChris Fabry has done it again! If you?re looking to have fun and you like country, this is the story for you. The characters jump off the pages and into your heart and you?ll be smiling at what they said and what they did for weeks to come. Each chapter is full of people you would just swear you know from your own hometown!Don Reid, The Statler BrothersA Piece of the Moon has it all. Quirky, endearing characters. A rich story arc full of surprises. Lines so funny you'll want to read them aloud to anybody within earshot. And a ten-der thread of redemption that runs from first page to last. Spending time with Waite and TD and Clay and Pidge and all the other folks in Emmaus was pure joy. The best novel I've read in ages.Liz Curtis Higgs, NYT bestselling author of Mine Is the NightWonderful! Full of believable characters, forgiveness, redemption, suspense, a great sense of ?place??not to mention a great playlist and quotable wisdom.
