About the Book

A long past, an uncertain present, Chip looks into the sunset to another tomorrow...

Sunset Tomorrowis a gripping story of a young man's search for his memory and more as he awakens from an accident with nothing but an engraved gold coin in his hand.

After the accident a doctor takes him into his own loving family where his beautiful daughter Shaleen names the young man "Chip" after the name on the coin. But the jealousy of Shaleen’s brother forces Chip to move on with nothing but a shared memory of a sunset, and the knowledge that there is always a new tomorrow.

In a new town, he begins once again where new temptations combine to control him. Though outside forces join together to form a wall of despair to hold him prisoner, there is a spark of light inside him that only he can, but won't, put out. It is an ember inherited from the loving spiritual parents of his soul. Through the darkness that surrounds him, he clings to that small spot of light, kindles it into power that gives him the courage of determination.

As he sees tomorrow in the sunset, he sees an inner of his own that will never set; for hope, like tomorrow, will always come.


About the Author

This new novel by one of our most popular modern LDS writers is the best one Shirley Sealy has ever written.

Many years ago, when a young man told her, "My father didn't ever have the time for me; he was always too busy helphing others," Mrs. Sealy thought, "That's a copout if I ever heard one."

"It's true a father who spends time with his son can make the path easier," she admitted, "but it is not a requisite of success. Have you ever read the life of George Washington who lost his father at the age of eleven? And what about Abraham Lincoln? I can't ever remember reading anything about his father."

"They lived in a different time," the boy said.

Shirley Sealy thought about this conversation long afterward. "Yes, times are different," she said to herself. "But greatness is still the same, built on strength of character and a self will to be master of one's own destiny. For all of us who struggle against the forces that seem organized to take away our courage, our free agency, there is a rich reward, a blessing born of the learning that comes from the struggle. And when we learn to listen to the still same voice within us, there is a communication between us and our heavenly parents who can lead and guide us through any and all adversity."

"It's is to these noble, brave and diligent children of our loving Father in Heaven who will not give up, but look through to tomorrow, that I dedicate this novel and hope it can become a guide to those who need inspiration."
