Reviewer: A reader
An amazing book! The title refers to the Bible text, which is quoted to the father, the main male character, at the beginning of the story. Sure enough, his life is turned upside down by the events of the next 24 hours. His two daughters, half sisters by different mothers, both come into his life after having been deprived of their father for most of their lives. Completely different in personality and character, they resemble their respective mothers. An amazing transformation is subtly and incredibly accomplished in several of the characters by the end of the story, which has a strong underlying spiritual tone throughout.
