Overview
Seventeen-year-old Ezra-Nori-Thorpe-Casey is in a jam. He's locked up in the steeple of the Free Will Baptist Church in Mansfield, Oklahoma awaiting his fate: a shotgun wedding to Preacher Bascom's daughter, Roseabeth. The shotgun-toting Preacher is convinced Ezra "ruined" Roseabeth on prom night and aims to make things right. By hook or crook, luck or logic, Ezra needs to find a way to evade the unholy union with the less that angelic Roseabeth. However, with Preacher, the town bully, the county sheriff, and the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) coming down on him like hard rain, it will take a miracle for Ezra to maintain his freedom, never mind his dignity. And sometimes miracles happen, even to those who think they're undeserving. At other times, righteous men are so consumed by their beliefs they justify violence in the name of the deity in which they believe. What fate awaits Ezra in this ecclesiastical clash of ideas?
