Description
Len Holder thinks his mother is dead – until she reappears one morning in his living room. She doesn’t remember being dead. She’s just confused. And instead of her burial clothes, she’s wearing a Dallas Cowboys warmup suit. At seventy-eight, Len considers himself a failure. He spent years taking care of Mom while his brother Joey became a famous sportscaster. Now he lives alone, tinkering with a novel he can’t seem to finish. For a week, Len relives a strained relationship with Mom while other mysteries pile up. He keeps hearing fragments of Joey’s radio show. His sister reports disturbing phone calls. Strangers he meets look like people from his past. Another stranger has taken over his insurance office.
Then Len gets word that his beloved boss Miranda has been gravely injured in a car accident. Eventually, Miranda’s fate and a shocking secret from the past reveal that Sharon Holder’s resurrection is not what it seems to be.
The Seven-Day Resurrection is a must-read for anyone who has been thrust into the role of caregiver.

With a combination of faith and grace, The Seven-Day Resurrection by Chevron Ross elevates Christian fiction to a whole new level. It delivers one of the most memorable stories of the year. -- Vincent Dublado, Readers' Favorite
A delicate narrative of a mother-son, built on themes of nostalgia and hope, with a clever and mysterious back-from-the-dead central plot. -- Aneesha Shewani, Reedsy

The Seven-Day Resurrection is the story of a man whose mother returns from the dead. Or does she? The man is Len Holder and he has spent years caring for his mother. After she returns from the dead, he begins to look back at these times, his mother shares some of her memories of the past, and he reflects on all this. The characters are well-written, the plot is unique, and the dialogue is great. I think that people will enjoy this look back at life told from the view of a caregiver.
