About the Book

Patrick and Maria Walsh, a suburban Philadelphia couple with simple, well-planned lives, experience the birth of their third child. But all is not how they planned it. Halfway around the world a barely-alive child is placed in an orphanage under the care of Sister Christiana, a Catholic nun whose unselfish dedication to children is shaken by her desire for something more. Can Patrick find his way past his instinct to control the world around him and open his heart again? Will Sister Christiana find answers to her questions in the unresponsive child? Surrounded by the selflessness and caring of people who love them, a broken father, a questioning nun and a lost child learn that life offers amazing gifts and moments to treasure. Based on real events, this beautiful story resonates with hope as it takes us along on multiple journeys to a place where fear is overcome by others' willingness to give. And as these uncharted journeys move forward they reveal to us that there is always a "gift" waiting somewhere in our lives if we are willing to recognize and embrace it.
About the Author: Tom O'Grady, Jr. is a Philadelphia born and- raised freelance writer who writes for joy. Having raised his children Tom lives on a Caribbean island bartending and writing books. A Gift Is Waiting is his second novel.
