Joan of Miami

By A Parrish

The time is 2005. The place In Miami, Florida, the Magic City.

Joan of Miami is a timely and captivating novel that intertwines the universal themes of the search for personal authenticity in an ever-changing materialistic world. Starting off against the vibrant backdrop of Miami's dynamic real estate industry, the story then rockets off to the dazzling heights of Manhattan's elite advertising agencies. There, Jean Molk, a 19-yearl old girl from a small town where family ties bind ever so tightly, finds herself thrust into the ever-present battle between integrity and ambition.

Much like the historical Joan of Arc-a reference that subtly weaves through the narrative-Jean Molk fights for what she believes is right against all odds, including her fears for her own sanity. Her journey reflects the larger conflicts plaguing society today, including income inequality, the erosion of community, and unchecked corporate greed. Jean has her own family history to support her, but will it be enough as she navigates the confusing worlds of politics, business, and self-discovery, including her own virginity and longing for love in her life?

The story is rich with complex characters, from nuns to housemaids, to savvy lawyers and political kingpins. At its heart is a gripping tale of an unexpected hero's rise, which, as author Reeve Lindbergh, herself the daughter of a famous aviator and acclaimed author mother, has noted, makes it "a real page-turner."

If you are wanting to accompany a modern-day Maid of Orleans on a thrilling spiritual adventure ranging from Miami to Manhattan to Mexico, then Joan of Miami is for you.
