Shakespeare's Best Work

After a fiery car wreck he barely survives—rescued by a strange old man in 1800s clothes—troubled teenager James Moyer expects his powerful father's fury. Instead his father tells him the story of his English great-great-great grandfather, a stuttering, mocked farmhand who loved God, lost everything, and gathered to Zion with the pioneers. As the generations-old tale unfolds, James begins to recognize the man who saved him—and to see his own worth. A warm LDS novel about faith, family, and finding meaning in a quiet, faithful life.

• A troubled teen is saved from a burning wreck by a stranger who turns out to be his own pioneer ancestor.
• Two brothers born and dead on the same days—one faithful, one a charlatan—and neither knowing they're related.
• A quiet answer to 'Does my ordinary, faithful life actually matter?'—perfect for anyone who feels overlooked.
• William Shakespeare's fictional bloodline flows into a humble Mormon pioneer whose 'best work' is his faithful life.

Perfect for an LDS teen or parent who loves faith-promoting pioneer stories about ancestors and wants a message that a quiet, faithful life has eternal worth.
