Give Me Glory

Five years ago, Austin Wapiti left his home on the Meskwaki Settlement in Tama, Iowa, determined never to return. He'd abruptly learned everything he'd valued in his first twenty-one years was a lie. Even so, today we find him and his dog Murray making their way back to the home of his biological parents, Liz and Gray Morgan. Against his better judgement, Austin is heeding Liz's plea to support his dad through a crisis. Throughout the summer, colorful characters invade Austin's life, among them his spunky five-year old sister, a mysterious Meskwaki lady, and an embittered ex-con. Austin is thrown back into life, full force. Can he forget the shame he carries from the past? Can he help Gray become the man he once was? And can he make a difference for a girl named Glory? This sequel to HAPPY DREAMS offers a thrilling and satisfying continuation of the lives you may already have grown to care about. At the same time, it will captivate new readers and give them an appreciation for the Meskwaki Nation.
