description
ered reporter with an elusive past, takes a job at Ore Town's newspaper, The Messenger. What begins as a newspaper job quickly becomes an odyssey into the memories of a vanishing generation raised during the Great Depression and subjected to the atrocities of World War II. Maggie finds herself weaving their stories into a visionary tapestry that will ultimately reveal her own destiny-one she is reluctant to accept.

Sing for the Lonesome Messenger takes readers on a journey from a 1930s Lake Superior lighthouse and shipwreck mystery to a Catholic orphanage, a single shot fired in World War II, and a twenty-first century Upper Michigan nursing home where a former newspaper editor seeks to relinquish his long-held secrets.

Readers can prepare for experiencing childhood innocence tinged by desperation, lifelong loyalty, humor, mystery, murder, and supernatural events, all culminating in redemption.

Maggie Maise and her fellow characters-Tracker McKie, Mike and Jimmer, Sid and Mrs. Sykes, and so many more-will live on in the reader's memory long after the final page. This extraordinary journey may even give readers a new understanding of the mysteries of love, sacrifice, and eternal light.

Author David Edward Edwards is a retired "newspaper orphan," having spent decades as a newspaper reporter and managing editor. His work garnered Associated Press and Michigan Press Association awards of excellence in categories including Investigative Reporting, Editorial Writing, Editorial Page Column, Feature Writing, and News Photography. He resides in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
