Chris Murphy
Haven ~ Book 6 in the Impatiens series. A series of tragedies throws Christian Gallagher into a depression so severe only Samia Siva can pull him out of it. The spoiled, globe-trotting ball-of-fire does so by returning to Orlando with a photo of Terrence Nguyen, a twenty-one year-old Asian man who looks so much like Christian he could be his son. Samia drags her troubled friend to Atlanta where Terrence works as a counselor at Haven House, a center for homeless youth. The brave, generous, silly and impulsive pair stay just long enough to determine if the young man is actually a Gallagher, and to affect the lives of the shelter’s residents and staff in ways both heroic and fatal. Christian and Samia spend six days shaking up Haven House and everyone associated with it, and in so doing challenge their ideas of rescue, family, justice and peace. About the author: Chris Murphy lives in Orlando, Florida.
