HOUSE OF MERCY by ERIN HEALY


This compelling tale of the power of mercy is set against the wide open skies and cattle ranches of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. The main character, Beth, has an affinity for animals and dreams of becoming a vet. Meanwhile her father dreams of opening up the ranch to men needing a second chance. This is a goal Beth supports, but inadvertently undermines with one foolish mistake.  

As Beth struggles to put the pieces back together, things spiral out of control. Mercy becomes a tangible presence for Beth when she encounters a wolf named Mercy. Without knowing whether it's real or a figment of her imagination she sets off on horseback across the Mountains in search of a resolution. The book becomes a study of the role of mercy and forgiveness in our lives and the teaching role God so often plays during hardship.

Fast-paced and well-written, House of Mercy, keeps you on the edge of your seat and, in the end, leaves you wondering. Erin Healy has written an edge-of-your-seat thriller with powerful spiritual undertones. We highly recommend it and give it a 5-star rating.
