Through the Eye of Old Man Kyle: A Novel
Ebook
Hunter Saint's final summer as a staff member at Camp Woodward was supposed to be ordinary. He planned on spending the three months lifeguarding, reflecting on his college experience, and wooing the girl he's been in love with since high school. However, a new staffer, the alienated and antisocial Jordan Caol, throws Hunter's plans into chaos. After Jordan fires a gun in the rec field and runs away into the wilderness, Hunter takes it on himself to find the prodigal and bring him home. His grueling odyssey through uncharted territory shows him much more about the runaway outcast, and his own soul, than he ever could have expected.
Through the Eye of Old Man Kyle is Peter Biles's second, shimmering novel--a powerful adventure story and a meditation on faith, growing up, and a young man's journey toward grace.
“Peter Biles sends his readers on a journey into the Oklahoma wilderness, wrought with awe-inspiring beauty, yet fraught with danger. In his second novel, Through the Eye of Old Man Kyle, Biles writes with piercing clarity as his characters wrestle with faith and belonging, growing up, and learning what we all must learn as people of God: how to love God and our neighbor.”
—Lisa Cooper, director of products and content, RevelationMedia
