A Place in the Sun
Book 4 of the The Journals of Corrie Belle Hollister series
300 pages · First published 1991
Characters searching for a better future reach a place that appears to offer the prosperity and freedom they have been seeking. Settling there proves more complicated than arriving, as family tensions, work, and new relationships expose the difference between opportunity and belonging. Christian faith shapes the characters’ understanding of success as they decide what kind of life is actually worth building. Michael R. Phillips’s historical family saga treats a place in the sun not as a guaranteed reward but as something whose value depends on the choices made once it is found.
