SUMMARY:Local Author: Rhett Rinne
DESCRIPTION:The library is pleased to welcome R.L. Rinne for a signing of his book Quest for the Scroll. His book received an award by the 2023 American Writing Awards contest in the Religious Fiction category. \nQuest for the Scroll follows Magnus\, a student of Saint Martin of Tours. He is protecting a sacred scroll from those wanting to use it for their gain. “From the hallowed ground of Tours to the mist-shrouded shores of Britannia\, Magnus’s path is fraught with peril. He finds solace in the gentle heart of Cynde\, an innkeeper’s daughter whose spirit shines amidst the encroaching shadows. Together\, they flee to escape the persecution of a corrupt bishop\, their love a beacon in a world teetering on the edge of chaos. They face treacherous landscapes\, ruthless mercenaries\, and the ever-present threat of those who fear the true power of faith.” – description from Amazon.com
