A historical fiction novel has raised $15,000 for a nonprofit that supports foster families. The novel is inspired by true events and set in the late 1930s. It takes place at a hotel that was struggling financially, despite being bankrupt nearly a decade earlier.

The story explores themes of World War II and its impact. Further details about the novel and its author are available. The author's work was discussed at a recent meeting, where the novel's connection to city history was also explored.

The novel was published in May and has already generated significant funds for a faith-based nonprofit.
