Notes:In this tender coming–of–age story, a young boy discovers a hidden stash of money—and more trouble than he thought possible. As he unravels the mystery of its origin, he discovers an even greater mystery—the mystery of the grace of God as it is expressed through a small community of believers.

With a cast of characters worthy of a Mark Twain novel, a mysterious illness, an astounding confession, and a lump–in–the–throat climax, this story is sure to bring laughter and tears as it entertains and enriches a wide range of readers.
My Rating: 7

Review - Edge of the World, The

Clever and humorous at times, but a bit over the top on the plausibility meter.
