Blog Tour: A Flower in the Snow by Mark Cosman


Non-Fiction / Memoir
Date Published: July 2014

"Mark Cosman’s message speaks to mothers and fathers everywhere; this is a beautiful and sensitive book." Mrs. Nancy Reagan 


My daughter. Berlyn, was asleep on a fold-out couch at her high school prom party when a former classmate and high school dropout shot her in the head for no apparent reason. Her murder prompted me to leave the rubble of my beliefs and assumptions to go in search of answers to the most profound questions we ask ourselves. “A Flower in the Snow” is the result of that odyssey.

Review


This is a heartwrenching novel that stems from the most horrific things a parent could go through. The questions and thoughts that the experience brought on are ones that really make you as the reader think about what you would think in his situation. Its very well written and deep and thought-provoking.
