This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is posting about Karen Kingsbury‘s latest book, Like Dandelion Dust.

Here’s a review by Mimi Pearson:

A PEACEFUL TOWN…
AN IDYLLIC FAMILY…
A PHONE CALL THAT THREATENS THEM ALL.Jack and Molly Campbell enjoyed an idyllic life (great house in a fancy neighborhood, high-paying job, and a beautiful little boy) in their small hometown outside Atlanta with their adopted 4-year-old, Joey.

Then they receive the phone call that shatters their world: a social worker delivers the news that Joey’s biological father has been released from prison and is ready to start life over with his son. (It’s discovered that Joey’s birth mother forged the signature of Joey’s birth father, making it a fraudulent adoption.) When a judge rules that Joey must be returned to his father (a man who cannot separate love and violence), the Campbells, in a silent haze of grief and utter disbelief, watch their son pick a dandelion and blow the feathery seeds into the wind.Struggling with the dilemma of following the law, their hearts, and what they know to be morally right, the Campbells find that desperation leads to dangerous thoughts. What if they can devise a plan? Take Joey and simply disappear….LIKE DANDELION DUST.
