Publisher Description
“A touching portrait of human desires and frailties.” —Booklist
Award-winning author Felicia Mason is at her riveting best with this powerful tale of discord and drama among the members of a gospel choir…
After eighteen years, Roger McKenzie is questioning his calling as leader of the gospel choir, The Triumphant Voices of Praise. Not only have they failed to achieve the success he craves, their relationships are unraveling, turning them into disillusioned and bitter strangers…
Tyrone Thomas has always considered his cousin Roger his best friend. So he can’t understand why his own wife, Georgie, seems intent on driving a wedge between them. For Georgie’s part, there’s something about Roger she doesn’t trust. Yet she has secrets of her own—the kind that could destroy her cherished marriage….Pampered, privileged Margaret Hall-Stuart may have the voice of an angel, but she’s determined to make a play for Roger—until someone else in the group opens her eyes to a world she’s never imagined. And when Roger begins to receive hateful, anonymous messages, the whole choir is plunged into an ordeal. Now they’ll have to confront their pasts, their demons, and their greatest obstacles: themselves…

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Blackboard bestseller Felicia Mason (For the Love of You, etc.) traces various dramas among the members of the Triumphant Voices of Praise gospel choir in Testimony. Choir leader Roger has been burning himself out, waiting for their elusive big break. He must deal with his own demons as he juggles his charges, including Margaret, the snobby diva who has designs on him; Glenna, the woman with a checkered past and a grave illness; his cousin Tyrone, whose marriage is at a crossroads; and Scottie, who may be running numbers or worse. Plot and dialogue often feel contrived, but Mason scores points for resisting an easy, feel-good ending. National advertising.
