About this ebook
A father struggles to raise his daughter right as she comes of age in the 1960s in this moving conclusion to a multi-generational family trilogy.
Simon Hagan's life has been portrayed over several decades in Annette Valentine's novels Eastbound From Flagstaff and Down to the Potter's House. In Sufficient Sacrifice, he bears the burden of responsibility to give his child, Alexandra, the foundational strength she needs to navigate the bumpy road of her youthful years and the proverbial wings she needs to fly against the winds of young adulthood.
With the goal of Sufficient Sacrifice elevating the power of a father's love for his child, the story poses the question of whether Simon's influence has diminished over time or been compromised by the eroding push of a determined woman. Simon, however, makes the necessary sacrifices. Having given all he had to give, Sufficient Sacrifice uniquely portrays his stunning and triumphant victory over Alexandra's confusion and rebellion. The results land her on higher ground, enabling her to be more than conqueror.
"Excellent!! An absolute treasure that recounts the warm and sometimes harsh realities of a family striving to maintain a high standard of living amidst currents of mediocrity." —Becky Hadden Wise, educator, Carver Middle School, Spartanburg, South Carolina
