The Jealous Son

“A family saga that draws on the biblical tale of Cain and Abel . . . a bold, tragic, and emotionally exploratory drama” by the author of The Faithful One (Kirkus Reviews).. Banned from their home in the Navajo Nation as a result of their disobedience, Eliza and Alex Trellis build a new life for themselves and their two sons.. Although life is a daily struggle, the boys grow up healthy and happy—until the oldest son Cameron starts to become envious of his younger brother and bandmate Austin, who gets everything he wants—fame, fortune and all that goes with it. Jealous that his brother seems to unfairly gain the attention of their parents, the accolades of the world and the love of his girl, Cameron seeks to find justice once and for all.. A modern-day take on the story of Cain and Abel, The Jealous Son portrays what happens when envy goes too far.. “This is edgy inspirational fiction at its best! Just like my favorite movies, The Jealous Son is entertaining, heart-wrenching and packed with a powerful message.” —Cindy Bond,. Mission Films, producer of I Can Only Imagine. “I felt as though I was on an emotional roller coaster as I read The Jealous Son. My emotions went from happy to sad to angry to surprised to inspired in a matter of a few pages . . . Michele Chynoweth has written a book that will quickly become a classic in the inspirational fiction genre. This is without a doubt a book one should not pass up.” —Readers’ Favorite (5-star review)
