Product Description
A Promise made.
A Love that will Last Forever.
If you've ever loved someone to the depth of your being, someone who for one reason or other needed to move on, you know the power of a parting wish. The story of Joseph and Anne, his wife of fifty-three years, is the story of just such a wish-one that only true love could try to achieve. And for Joseph the strength to build the stone wall-a special reminder from Anne's childhood-will take him places he never expected and that you will never forget.
The Pearls of the Stone Man takes us beyond generations and our own stone walls to the very humanity that unites us all-and shows us the incredible power of one couple's love to last beyond parting and forever change the lives of those they touched.

Thank you for considering my novel, "The Pearls of the Stone Man". A friend mentioned the book was featured on this site and I wanted to stop by and say hello.
My story is about lasting relationships - a couple together for over 50 years. It's also about teens and their struggles. I do give regular tours of the setting. This is the first book in a trilogy.
Oh, and I don't have to be entered in the contest, for obvious reasons! Smiles!
Best wishes,

As a bonus, here's a video the movie director created back in 2007 as a study for the full film production to come. It assumes the viewer knows the story, but it is a beautiful piece:
