Join with Pete, the lead-pastor, Joe, his son, transitioning to be Jo, his daughter and Jack, the popular youth leader who creates a scandal when he leads his youth club to split off from the parent church. These and other engaging characters grapple with crippling doubts, courageously standing up against appalling sexism, transphobia and outspoken anti-LGBTQ+ feelings in the days when gays and lesbians were only just beginning to struggle in solidarity against Mrs Thatcher’s ‘section 28’. Behind all of this lay a poisonous, fundamentalist culture produced by a fierce commitment to biblical literalism and inerrancy, enforced by an authoritarian, hierarchical church structure. These troubling concerns, still with us today, are dealt with in a respectful, gracious manner, intended to encourage irenic discussion. We see many of the characters emerging towards a fresh expression of their faith into what we know today as Progressive Christianity. Join this remarkable journey of self-discovery, as the characters grapple with their beliefs, confront toxic church culture, and embark on a path towards healing and inclusivity. Read more

Author Interview: Q1. Why do you call When the Wood Is Dry an Edgy Catholic Thriller? When the Wood Is Dry is based loosely on accounts of Christian virgin martyrs like St. Maria Gorretti and St. Agnes. The lead character is a committed Catholic who experiences visions that unite her sufferings with the sufferings of Christ. The themes are very Catholic and the content is decidedly edgy. By calling it an Edgy Catholic Thriller, we identify clearly that it is a Christian thriller, and what might be considered Catholic adult fiction. Q2. Would you consider When the Wood Is Dry as Women’s Fiction? When the Wood Is Dry is Women’s Fiction in much the same way that Uncle Tom’s Cabin was Women’s Fiction, except that it was written by a man. While the content is thrilling, the focus is on the emotional journey of the characters, centered around an injustice that is accepted by society, and the victimization of someone standing against that injustice–a strong female lead thriller in which the main character is truly feminine and not strong by virtue of traits more typically considered masculine. The book fits a lot of other categories like, a Christian Crime Drama, a Kidnapping Thriller, a Religious Thriller, etc., and can be enjoyed on that level, but points to much deeper truths. Read more
