First Series: WHAT THE DAY DOES NOT KNOW, prequel to ALL THE DAY ALLOWS.
Twenty-year-old Marjory McAllister is running out of time. If she doesn’t act soon, her overbearing aunt will push her into a loveless marriage and small-town life. So, when a handsome stranger calls out for missionaries to northern Africa, the summons seems like an answer to prayer. But Marjory’s storybook notions about missionary service are about to meet with a fierce awakening.
Inspired by true accounts of Canadian missionaries in Nigeria and Ethiopia in the 1930s, ALL THE DAY ALLOWS explores a little-known nugget of Canadian history. In its prequel, WHAT THE DAY DOES NOT KNOW, Marjory must face harsh truths about her own motives.
