Blackberry Hill

This is the sequel to Wine for Tomorrow, the novel that took Obadiah (Obie) Gainsworthy from his Adirondack hometown of Stafford Rest to the war in Italy and finally to the Bay Area of California. Now, he has regained lost faith and intends to serve God through his writing and as a military chaplain. But Obie suffers from the bitter disappointments of his love life, a failed pastoral ministry, and the scars of three wars. Two factors cast shadows over his peace of mind and his ability to serve as he believes he should: He still harbors hate for Laura Hunt for what he believes was her betrayal many years earlier. And his guilt for having killed an innocent German prisoner in Italy is never far from his mind. It's a love story, too; Obie's love for Cassie is the glue that holds things together
