Pie Town, New Mexico, was once legendary for its
extraordinary pies. But it's been a while since these
delectable desserts graced the counter at the local diner.
The townspeople—a hearty mix of Anglos, Hispanics, and
Native Americans—like to think of themselves as family,
especially when it comes to caring for Alex, a disabled
little boy being raised by his grandparents.
But, unforeseen by all, Pie Town's fortunes are about to
take a major turn—due to the arrival of a new priest,
Father George Morris, who seems woefully unprepared for his
first assignment, and the young hitchhiker Trina, who some
townsfolk just know is trouble. . . .
It's hard to imagine a town named "Pie Town" not having a single shop that sells pies, but that is the situation in Pie Town, New Mexico, and it is in this tiny, but intriguing town that author Lynn Hinton has set her new and promising series.
This book features a heartwarming combination of fun, family and a bit of faith, as well as a good dose of mystery - all trademarks of Hinton's brilliant writing. I enjoyed this book, and look forward to more adventures in Pie Town to come! (Sharon Galligar Chance 4:58pm December 1, 2011)
