The Unfinished Gift

** Double Carol Award-winner - Best Debut Novel, Best Historical Fiction **
-- Soon to be a Major Motion Picture --

Patrick Collins has three items on his Christmas list. He wants the army to find his father, a B-17 pilot, somewhere in England. He wants to leave his grandfather’s house. And he wants--very badly--something he's just seen tucked away in his grandfather’s attic. Set at Christmastime in 1943, The Unfinished Gift is a dramatic family drama that reminds us of the surprising things that can affect powerful changes in our hearts–-a young boy’s desperate prayers, a shoebox full of love letters, even a dusty, long-forgotten wooden soldier.

Written by bestselling author Dan Walsh. Critics and reviewers often compare Dan's novels to Nicholas Sparks, Richard Paul Evans, and Charles Martin.

story theme

the narration was really disappointing... virtual voice truly doesn't get it. the story is for teenagers.

poor narration ruined a good story

The narration was awful. Mispronunciations and poor inflection interfered with the flow of the story. The story itself was well crafted.

Represents so many families

Great holiday story! It represents so many military families. Their sacrifices and hope to someday be together again for the holidays.

realistc story,

Good story but virtual voice made it difficult to listen to. try again with a human reader.

Virtual voice

The virtual voice is really not worth it. A real human would have done a better job.
