In the contemporary tradition of writers like Emily Ruskovich and Stephen Markley, Lord the One You Love is Sick is an explosive debut that reveals the devastating effects that a young man's heroin overdose has on a small Southern town. Gentry's death sends shock waves through his small Southern town, affecting everyone in different ways, including his mother, and his best friend, Dale, a police officer. As we meet the residents of the town - and learn their dark and often unspeakable secrets - we share in the triumphs and tragedies of the human spirit as it seeks healing and forgiveness. | Lord The One You Love Is Sick by Kasey Thornton, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
