I enjoyed this book that deals with the pitfalls of financial worry, the wages of greed, and God who has promised to be a refuge from both. The story was original, intriguing and highly enjoyable. I look forward to reading more by this author of Christian fiction.

Rather than her series, this is a single book. It is a unique and compelling story line.

First off Kathy Herman is a wonderful author and i have read nothing of hers that i did not like. This is a true-to-life story that poses the question, "is stealing ever ok?"
The story of Sally, who's husband has just left her for a younger woman, she is barely earning enough to stay afloat. Sally works in a nursing home and her favorite patient is Mrs. Rigsby. Mrs Rigsby has told Sally that she has saved some money, she is 90 years old and has dimentia, will anyone know, will it be ok to steal from someone who isn't going to live to spend it when Sally needs it so bad? What happens when the answer to this question is made final is a great story. I never found myself bored with some nice twists and turns and decisions to make.

GREAT READ.
I absolutely loved this book......highly recommend.
It was a great book. Could not put it down.
I liked the premise & thought the book would have explored more of the supernatural angle...but it just skimmed it. Turns out that guilty conscience will always take the form of a dark-shadow demonish type of entity haunting you at night. yeah right. spoiler alert.... I found it a little hard to swallow how EVERY character suddenly "found God" at the end. It was just ok for me.
