2018 Nautilus Award winner, Under the Sun is the first in a series that high school and college aged readers will connect with as they go on a cross country journey with a young man named Redemption, who doesn’t know what he is looking for, but ends up finding God. Under the Sun is a short but thought provoking read that frames just the kind of questions a teenager at the end of their childhood faith has lingering in the back of their mind, many times unasked and unanswered. Living vicariously through the main character, the reader gets to escape the everyday world of school, friends, family, pressures and expectations and journey upward across the Great Plains and inward into silence, thinking about thought, and the rewards of paying attention. Far from being preachy, important biblical themes and necessary elements of faith are woven into the images and sounds, ultimately converging at the climax of the story.

This year, it’s his sister's turn to pick the vacation destination, so he ends up on a dude ranch he knows he is going to hate. What with the dirt, animals, and germs, he can’t possibly be happy. Jason McCoy is the closeted sixteen-year-old son of the ranch owners and is trying to find his place in a world that doesn't seem to fit him. He takes an interest in Ethan, shows him around, and gets him to ride a horse. When he invites Ethan camping, Ethan thinks Jason must be joking.

Their friendship grows into something deeper as they begin to figure out what they want from life. But Ethan’s home is in Chicago, and the distance might be more than the two teenagers―and their blossoming relationship―can withstand.
