The Christmas Key

a great story of family, love and unusual circumstances. Easy to read - hard to put down.

This book was great!!! I give it 5 stars and a double thumbs up! The Christmas Key is a heartwarming story of how a family that is falling apart comes back together again.... Just in time for the holiday season. I know you'll enjoy it.

A recently divorced couple in their 40's are accidently locked in a church two nights before Christmas. Joanie and Mitch,the couple,have two teenage daughters. Natalie,17,an honor student,is suddenly failing in school. Amy,l5,a rebel,is prone to body-piercing and multi-chromatic hair styles. The girls are locked in their own feud. Kim O'Brien, author of LEGAL WEAPON ('04) and THE PASTOR'S ASSIGNMENT ('05), shows us where such circumstances can lead. In THE CHRISTMAS KEY she brings us a story of adults and teens, faith, fear, achievement, rebellion, love, discord and, interwoven in all, of the abundant humor of life. You'll read about Pastor Frank's unexpected visit to the girls while their parents "are away"; - about the real surprise in the Christmas box beneath the artificial tree; - about the family's Christmas letter that finally tells the truth. Pick up THE KEY....Open to the story Ms.O'Brien has to tell you. all
