Book Description
It has been over twenty years since the publication of The Ragamuffin Gospel, a book many claim as the shattering of God’s grace into their lives. Since that time, Brennan Manning has been dazzingly faithful in preaching and writing variations on that singular theme – “Yes, Abba is very fond of you!” But today the crowds are gone and the lights are dim, the patches on his knees have faded. If he ever was a ragamuffin, truly it is now. In this his final book, Brennan roves back his past, honoring the lives of the people closest to him, family and friends who’ve known the saint and the sinner, the boy and the man. Far from some chronological timeline, these memories are witness to the truth of life by one who has lived it – All Is Grace.

Book Description
Retribution. That's the goal of Grace Morgen and a small group of supporters. They exact a vigilante revenge on lowlifes who hurt those who cannot defend themselves. The latest case is Michael Jacobs, a violent abuser who tortured and killed his girlfriend's dog, Pepper. Now Grace, also a bestselling novelist known as Joan Dark, will inflict the same kinds of injuries on the man and leave Jacobs with a dog killer tattoo on his forehead. But just as Grace begins to question if her vigilante quest to stop animal abusers is getting out of control, she stumbles across some important information about her father's death more than seventeen years ago. His death may not have been an accident after all, but could have been an attempt to silence Dr. Brody Morgen's questions about wrongdoing at the Glendale Chemical Corporation. With the help of a reporter, a cop, and a tattooist, Grace and her friends investigate whether GCC illegally used homeless people and animals to foster their experiments. As an advocate for the defenseless, Grace and the group go up against not only a powerful corporation but a Nazi scientist, a gunrunner, and a hit man.
