Kelsey’s Crossing by David Randal follows the dynamic life of Greg Smith, a former Washington political adviser and legal expert. Having recently served time in prison for carrying out shocking federal crimes, Greg decides to turn over a new leaf. As such, he volunteers his assistance at the Kelsey Rescue Mission, a homeless shelter in Kelsey, Tennessee. Unfortunately, Greg is destined to clash with remnants of his notorious past. When corrupt Kelsey city officials attempt to get rid of the shelter, Grey bravely leads a campaign against them, which results in disastrous consequences. As a result, he and the shelter decide to intervene, resulting in the president summoning them to the White House to defend their cause. Read this moving tale to discover the outcome of the hearing on Greg and the lives of the men at the shelter.
Kelsey’s Crossing is an impactful story about the significance of acknowledging one's former self, including past mistakes, while embracing the life-altering opportunities that present themselves as second chances. David Randal is a skilled author with an eye for detail and a talent for allusions. He effectively combines these to create intriguing and distinctive environments out of seemingly ordinary ones. Greg and the men at the shelter all have three-dimensional and well-portrayed personas with complex backstories and plausible motivations. Greg's character, in particular, stands out above the rest. It is a captivating redemption story—from a fallen, self-absorbed white-collar professional, to a convict, to a man on a profound altruistic mission to save a homeless shelter. It makes this novel an engaging must-read that will appeal to the hearts and consciences of readers everywhere. Fans of political and crime thrillers will appreciate this book.
