Lord Have Mercy - Reed Johnnell

Lord, Have Mercy is about a woman named Grace, who is a very loving and devoted mother and wife to her family. She is well respected throughout her community. Only her family knows that she's gifted (physic). Her seemingly perfect life began to quickly unravel when her eight-year-old baby girl Sarah Jane becomes the obsession of a serial killer. He would stop at nothing until he got Sarah to be his wife! The killer is someone that no one would ever have suspected. It makes you wonder what kinds of monsters are lurking in the neighborhood.  Grace dealt with so much over that year. Sarah was not only stalked by a serial killer; she had a brain tumor that was cancerous, and she had a massive stroke, and she had to learn everything all over again.  Grace was attacked, raped, and beaten by her husband. She lost two children and almost a third. Her marriage crumbled to the point of no repair. Her house was burned to ashes. Everything bad that could happen to a person happened to her that year like a domino effect one after the next.  Grace weathered every storm and braced herself for the next. She survived with a new outlook on life. She realized that life is short and every moment she had left with her remaining six kids was priceless. To everyone's surprise, she wasn't this poor, struggling, divorced, pitiful, scorned woman with six kids that didn't know where her next meal was coming from. They all were wrong! Grace was a millionaire, but no one ever knew it.
