In Griselda Takes Flight, the second novel in Joyce Magnin's Bright's Pond series, life in a sleepy Pennsylvania town gets a jolt when a pilot makes an emergency landing and turns everything upside down. With her sister Agnes settled at the Greenbrier Nursing Home, Griselda suddenly finds an unexpected new freedom: she learns to fly.

Her time in the air with a handsome pilot named Cliff is only one of the things stirring up Bright's Pond. A gold digger is parading around town, supposedly engaged to the brother of Stella Kincaid, a lottery winner who lies in a coma. Ivy Slocum's dog, Al Capone, is up to adventures of his own. And when Chief of Police Mildred Blessing starts looking into the gold digger, things heat up for Griselda and for everyone in the unique little hamlet she calls home.

Joyce Magnin is an established author of Christian women's fiction whose Bright's Pond novels are set in a close-knit small town in Pennsylvania. Griselda Takes Flight blends gentle small-town comedy with a touch of mystery and the question that hangs over the whole town: do miracles still happen in Bright's Pond?
