NEWS | New Novel Captures Spiritual Honesty

ST. LOUIS – Segue Blue will release From The Dead, the latest novel by John Herrick, on August 31.

In From The Dead, Herrick traces the spiritual journey of Jesse Barlow, a wayward preacher’s son. As the scenes unfold, Jesse wades through a past filled with secrets, hypocrisy and broken dreams. Tackling social issues such as suicide and single parenthood, Herrick captures Jesse’s struggle with cutting honesty and a straightforward, contemporary tone.

When asked what he believes makes From The Dead unique, Herrick says, “The characters address pointed questions about the church—questions people are afraid to ask or for which they don’t know where to find answers.”
