For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." John 3:16-17

The Moon Looked Down

By Dorothy Garlock



The story unfolds as Sophie Heller heard someone yelling FIRE! FIRE! She awoke from her dream and started looking for her family. They were outside as the barn was burning.

The family had immigrated to America from Germany trying to escape the Nazis before Hiltler took over Germany before World War 2.

As the family all gets outside they are trying to find out what started the fire and three hooded men came around the house and said they were going to run the Nazis from their town. Some fighting took place and the barn burn to the ground.

Sophie worked at the newspaper in Victory, Illinois and her father was a farmer.

Cole Ambrose came back to town to become the math teacher in the local high school, as he had been gone for fifteen years. He had been a cripple all his life, but he met Sophie in the store and thought she was so pretty. He became determined to help the family find out who burned their barn.

There are fights, love and everything in between in this story. There is some explicated sex and some words that offended me but I read the book, as it really is a great story.

The book was supplied to me free of charge and did not ask that I do a positive review. To visit the site of the Author go here

I used to read Dorothy Garlock's books many years ago and I always enjoyed them. Thanks for posting about this one, Edna. I'd like to read more of Dorothy's books.
