Twenty Minutes in the Dark

By Nicholas Turner

He buried God the day his father died. Abandoned by his mother and broken by grief, Eli Dawson runs from the Appalachian hollow that raised him - chasing silence in a needle and escape in the dark. At twenty-two, an overdose stops his heart for twenty minutes. In that darkness, a voice calls his name. When he awakens with no medical explanation and no lasting damage, Eli must return to the mountains he fled - to face a daughter he never knew, a woman he once abandoned, and the weight of a calling he cannot ignore. But redemption is not the end of the fight. It is the beginning of obedience. Twenty Minutes in the Dark is a raw Appalachian story of addiction, resurrection, fatherhood, and the Shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine to rescue one.
