Book Review: A Soldier Surrenders
A Soldier Surrenders by Susan Peek is an incredible story about Saint Camillus de Lellis, a great sinner of the 1500s who became a great saint.

It’s always a pleasure to read a novel by the talented Donna Alice Patton. Woven into her stories are enticing themes of mystery, suspense, faith, hope, and trust.
