A novel about grief, grace, and the quiet miracles that live in the soil.
In the barren fields of rural Arkansas, an old man named Zeke Whitlow walks behind a rusty plow every morning, even though the earth has long since died and not a single seed has sprouted in years. It is said that he lost his only son in the war, and he has been plowing the land ever since, not to sow it, but to bury his grief. It is said that he digs into the sky itself, trying to bring back the rain.
Then one stormy night, thunder splits the sky. By morning, the field is green.
When Lena, a runaway girl, stumbles upon Zeke's land, driven by a past she cannot escape, she finds more than just shelter—she finds a mystery woven into the earth. Together, they begin to unravel a buried sadness, a hidden art, and a quiet hope that something lost might return.
A deeply human, lyrical story of love, loss, and redemption, Heaven's Heart is a Southern Gothic tale of what remains when all else is gone—and what can grow from even the hardest ground when mercy finally falls like rain.
