Medfield Author, Jim Sano just released 3rd Novel...Stolen Blessing

If you like an engaging mystery that makes you think, you may enjoy this third story in the Father Tom series.

Jim and his wife, Joanne, have been residents of Medfield since 1986, and have two daughters, Emily and Megan. During those years, working as a teacher, consultant, and then in finance at Dell-EMC, writing novels was an unexpected path for Jim.

Jim’s first novel, The Father’s Son, was released in 2019 and was followed up by Gus Busbi in 2020. Both novels have been awarded the Catholic Writers Guild Seal of Approval Award and have been featured on several TV, radio, and magazine interviews.

Jim says, " I’ve enjoyed the entire process of creating these stories set in Boston and the feedback from readers on the impact these stories have had on their lives has been humbling. It’s given me a great opportunity to make a difference and to meet so many truly amazing people along the way.”

Medfield resident, Kristina Bunce, who has participated in a local book discussion group on Jim’s first two books says, “For me, both The Father's Son and Gus Busbi were remarkable novels, compelling stories that truly engage your senses, embrace your joy and pain, and ultimately change your life perspective forever. I can highly recommend these wonderful books.”

Jim's third book of the series, Stolen Blessing, was released in March. Jim’s wife loves mysteries and he wanted to write one for her as a small payback for all the work she has done to help edit this series.

The summary on the back cover reads:

Erick and Addie Comghan have a good life in Boston. When the baby they have longed for is born, the unimaginable happens—Elizabeth goes missing the day after her baptism at St. Francis Parish. Father Tom and Angelo are pulled in to help solve the mystery of her disappearance in a race against time and the complicated dynamics of the relationships involved. Stolen Blessing is the third book in the Father Tom Series and is a story that offers suspense, intrigue, and a journey of love, redemption, and forgiveness.

Some early reviews on Stolen Blessing:

What a great read! I loved the plot, I loved the ending. This story speaks to all of us about the depth of the human spirit and our capacity to love and forgive. Like every human family, our imperfections make us who we are and will help to shape who we ultimately become in the future. This is a moving story of faith, hope, love, and forgiveness that will resonate with every reader! Andrea D. Hoisl, Director of Office of Faith Events, Diocese of Norwich

Stolen Blessings kept me guessing - who did it? why? how? But beyond the mystery, it offers a prescription for the familial wounds that threaten to steal the peace we all crave. Carolyn Astfalk, Award-winning Contemporary Catholic fiction author of All in Good Time

Jim Sano’s Stolen Blessing provides more than just an entertaining whodunnit with endearing characters. His story gives us rich layers of humanness, moral failings, grace, and a few subtle messages that are there for us —if we are paying attention. Margot Hill, Deputy Superintendent, Ret. Boston Police Department

Stolen Blessing is a wonderfully written mystery and the third story of the excellent Father Tom series. The characters will draw you in and keep you hooked throughout this deeply moving story and make you stop to think about life. Father Tom is an amazing character, and I hope we get books featuring him for years to come. Steven R. McEvoy, Book Reviews and More.

The books are available on Amazon, Amazon Kindle, and Ingram. Gus Busbi is available at Park Street Books and is appropriate for young adult readers.
