Opis

Fifteen down-home stories featuring resolute women. One woman's surprise gift for her church produces an unexpected result, another woman gets advance warning of an ice storm, another gets down and dirty at the grocery store, another finds a mystery in library books. Add a few mules, a pig in panties, a kiddie beauty pageant, an escaped convict, a Thanksgiving gone wrong, a couple of unexpected Christmas celebrations, a wannabe best-selling author, and a jar of ashes-and you have MIRACLE OF THE CONCRETE JESUS AND OTHER STORIES. Recycled from previous publication in e-books and print, these (mostly) prize-winning stories are "Miracle of the Concrete Jesus," "Angel on Ice," "Down and Dirty," "The Mystery of Emmaline Carter," "Insult to Injury," "Fixing the Blame," "Eye of the Beholder," "Query Letter From Helen," "The Girl Who Raced Mules," "Chosen Child," "Burning Bridges," "You Ain't Buck Nekkid," "The Best 'Un Yet," "Phoenix Rising," and "Rat-Killing."
