This month’s book is: The Miracle on Mohegan Island


By: Elizabeth Kelly

Maine’s rugged, picturesque Mohegan Island is home to weathered lobster fishermen and curious tourists…a genial if sleepy group. But when Spark Monahan-rakish prodigal son-returns unannounced to the dilapidated family home, his arrival launches a summer the likes of which this quiet town has never seen.

During Spark’s absence, his young son Hally has been cared for by what remains of the Monahan family. Spark's gentle brother Hugh and their shrewd, fork-tongued father Pastor Ragnar. Pastor Ragnar has led them with an iron will and a unique religious ideology, while Hugh has been busy mending the scars of a tumultuous family history. Spark's reentry into the family is rocky; even as adolescent Hally warms to his father's flair for mischief, he struggles to define himself against this new paternal figure. Testing the limits with one dangerous prank after another, Hally suddenly stuns the entire island when he claims to have had a spiritual vision.
