After three years in the seminary, Kevin Davis comes home for his brother's birthday, and refuses to tell anyone why he's not going back. No one can pry the reason from him, not his parents, his brothers, or even his twin sister. But when childhood love Lydia Freeman bounces back into his life and yanks him out of his pool of despair, he considers telling her the truth, even though once she knows, there's no going back. He struggles with the truth, a pen pal who wants to be so much more, and an unfortunate streak with fire. Finding Father Rabbit follows the Davis family through two years, from Kevin's return home to the explosion of his secret revealed.
I'm currently living in mega-metropolis Dixon, CA (population 17,000) with a Spouse Thingy and two cats (Max the Psychokitty and Buddah Pest, both of whom are far more popular than I...and Max has his own books out there...) I also have an adult son who long ago escaped the confines of parental ineptitude and is pursuing his love of acting. The kid is seriously good--Srsly--so keep an eye out for Curt Thompson.
