Where the Roses Never Fade

by Jeremy McCollum

In Savannah, Georgia in 1936, Nathan Ogilvie is a new lawyer in the Old South. He finds a true friend in Deputy Jack Somersby, and together they protect the most vulnerable, especially a widow named Mattie Walker who takes in orphaned and abandoned children, most of whom are half-white. When a well-known cotton broker is mysteriously murdered, Nathan must defend an innocent colored woman against an angry white jury. His case becomes even more dangerous when he breaks the law himself: he falls in love with his client.

About the author

I am blessed to have been born and raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and exposed to great literature early on. From the old McGuffy Readers to C. S. Lewis, these early influences lead me to study English in college. I worked in finance for several years, but in time I took advantage of an opportunity to move to Atlanta and pursue my calling as a teacher and an author. My passion is to use language and literature to point people to Jesus, because there is no more thrilling feeling than to be forgiven, changed, and loved by the Creator of the Universe.
