Flint House

by Kathleen Asay

Overview

What happens when a burnt-out journalist meets a house full of lost souls? Liz Cane has seen too many sob stories in her career with The Sacramentan to have much sympathy for the boarders in Flint House who face eviction after the owner of the house has died, literally at Liz's feet. But when she's drawn into the battle to save their home, she discovers the story isn't the one she expected, and family begins in the heart.

Editorial Reviews

A warmhearted sage of connections found, connections lost and connections that make family out of strangers with bonds as real as any based on blood. So come on, move into Flint House, but be warned, once you do, you won't want to leave.

cover blurb - Bill Pieper

Kathleen Asay mines the mysteries of the human heart and uncovers gold. Flint House is more than a story about the struggle of society's misfits and their enigmatic leader to save their Sacramento home from closing. It's a tale of redemption, love in all its myriad forms, and the power of hope. Like the cynical journalist who narrates their tale, you will fall in love with the denizens of Flint House.

An accomplished writer with a gift for storytelling, Kathleen Asay has crafted an intriguing tale in Flint House, a mystery set in Sacramento, California. Asay's characters are original and well-drawn, and the novel is charming throughout. Best, the surprise ending is deeply satisfying--I'm looking forward to reading more from this fine novelist.
