A Whisper of Freedom,

by Tricia Goyer

Published by Moody Publishers

Book 3 (and final) in the Chronicles of the Spanish Civil War series.

About the book: Battles heat up…not only those being waged by the soldiers on both sides fighting for Spain, but in the hearts and minds of the men and women who must sacrifice more than their dreams to save the lives of their loved ones.

In this meticulously researched novel, brave and idealistic Sophie, Philip, Jose, and Deion realize their only hope for freedom is escaping Spain's borders.

By continuing the story of this band of volunteers during the Spanish Civil War, A Whisper of Freedom proves that there are whispers of hope and liberty that resonate through even the darkest night.

Here are the MEME questions and my answers:

List three things you would do with a chest full of gold (assuming you got to keep it!).

• Convert it to cash and put it in an IRA or Money Market account.
• Fix up our house.
• Visit all the places in the world I’ve always wanted to see.

List three charities/missions/organizations you support (and why).

• The American Cancer Society. I’ve lost a brother, father and sister and mother-in-law to cancer.
• The Humane Society of the United States. For obvious reasons.
• “Heaven Can Wait”, a local veterinarian group that provides free spay and neutering services for cats.

List three ways you have volunteered your time/services.

• Served as ‘literature coordinator’ for the local chapter of Christian Women’s Club.
• Doing book blog tours like this
• Served as Treasurer on the ACFW Operating Board for 2-1/2 years.

List three things you keep ‘hidden’ when company comes over.

• The cat’s room. (Don’t ask.)
• My closet – er, the inside, that is.
• The inside of the refrigerator, too. What a disaster!

List the last three things you’ve lost.

• My mind.
• My sister
• Almost twenty pounds. Yippee, Skippy!

List the last three things you’ve found.

• My mind. No, wait. Yes. Uh oh, there it goes again.
• That I can actually live without salt. Doing without butter is another thing entirely.
• Peace that where I am right now is exactly where God wants me to be.
