Tabernacle by Marc Cavella (English) Paperback Book

Description: Tabernacle by Marc Cavella A wildly successful salesman who sells a product that none of his clients actually wants is going to do everything he can-like adopting a destitute child and buying tons of John Cena t-shirts-to earn the biggest commission of his career. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Edward Jones is an easygoing Southern salesman whose company only assigns him their most important contracts. But thats not a problem for Edward; after all, the more important contracts equal more money in his pockets. And even though his Papaw and Daddy also did this same kind of work, they never came up against anything as complicated as Edwards latest assignment: Dr. Jared Young, a generous parochial-school headmaster with a gorgeous wife and three wonderful sons, all thriving in an idyllic community up in Hutchinson County. Jared and his family dont know it yet, but Edwards going to do everything in his power--like temporarily adopting a destitute-yet-philosophical Mexican child and buying armloads of retina-searing John Cena t-shirts--to turn their world entirely upside down, all so he can earn his biggest commission yet. Equal parts satirical dark comedy, neo-Western thriller, and meditation on modern manhood--with an adorable Yorkshire Terrier thrown in for good measure--Tabernacle will have readers (and, with a little bit of luck, Jared Young himself) hooked on its unpredictable plot and wicked sense of humor before they even know whats hit them. Author Biography Marc Cavella has been a professional writer for nearly twenty years. He has plans for two additional sequels to Tabernacle, as well as a number of other books. One of these books is "A Lot Less Effort", a sweetly humorous take on relationships and commitment that ponders the lengths well go to in order to honor our most meaningful friendships, all set against the backdrop of Virginias Civil War battlefields.
