In A Far-Off Land

By Stephanie Landsem

Description:

It’s 1931 in Hollywood, and Minerva Sinclaire is on the run for a murder she didn’t commit.

As the Great Depression hits the Midwest, Minerva Sinclaire runs away to Hollywood, determined to make it big and save the family farm. But beauty and moxie don’t pay the bills in Tinseltown, and she’s caught in a downward spiral of poverty, desperation, and compromise. Finally, she’s about to sign with a major studio and make up for it all. Instead, she wakes up next to a dead film star and is on the run for a murder she didn’t commit.

Book Takeaway:

God's mercy is more than we can imagine, and waiting for us with open arms.

Why the author wrote this book:

Falling, repenting, and being welcomed back to the Father is the story of humanity from Adam and Eve to our present day. And most importantly, it is the story of God’s great mercy. In Mina’s story, I hoped to show how a son of daughter of God can go down into the depths of sin but never—never!—be out of reach of the Father’s immense love and forgiveness.
