Publisher Description

This is a short fiction story. There was an air of calm and reserved opulence about the Weightman mansion that spoke not of money squandered, but of wealth prudently applied. Standing on a comer of the Avenue no longer fashionable for residence, it looked upon the swelling tide of business with an expression of complacency and half-disdain.

Wonderful

Simply wonderful. Truly makes you think of what’s really important.

VP Fan ,

A powerful read

The first half leaves you understandably uninspired, but is prelude to a masterful exposition on the power of true giving.

The Mansion

This was a great way to begin the Christmas season.
