Publisher's Description
Sometimes you have to go a little bit crazy to discover the life you were meant to live. Heather Curridge is coming unhinged. And people are starting to notice. What's wrong with a woman who has everything--a mansion on a lake, a loving son, a heart-surgeon husband--yet still feels miserable inside? When Heather spends the summer with two ancient Quaker sisters and a crusty nun running a downtown homeless shelter, she finds herself at a crossroads. Life turns upside down for Heather in a Quaker Summer. “One of the most powerful voices in Christian fiction, Samson delivers …a staggering examination of the Christian conscience.” – Publishers Weekly

“Quaker Summer speaks to the heart of women. It just might set you free in ways you’ve never imagined.”
“life,” but in the case of Quaker Summer, I shout it with a hearty amen. Samson weaves a compelling, surprising, faith-awakening story with the deft skill of a writing artisan. Her characters practically materialize in the room when you’re reading, wooing you to consider their lives, struggles, and questions. Samson puts a human face on consumerism, compelling the reader to consider Jesus’ radical call, but she does so with candor and grace. A highly recommended book.”
