Passing Through Paradise: General Discussion Guide

Summary:

"In Paradise I stumbled onto a dead body,
found my new mother, and was almost murdered."

Young Angela Kiln and her father move to the slowly dying town of Paradise. Once they settle into small town life and get to know the residents, Angela and her father, a high school teacher, find that the town isn't the only thing dying-- so, apparently, are the students.

Passing through Paradise is an alternately funny, sentimental, and chilling account of a young girl, her still-grieving father, and a town that refuses to recognize the future.

Part mystery novel, part sentimental journey, Passing Through Paradise shows the best and worst of human nature, illuminated against the backdrop of a small town that refuses to recognize the future.

" . . . a suspenseful story told with insight, humor, conviction, and compassion."
-- Andrew Johanson, Paradise Post, Ironwood County, Minnesota
