The Master's Plan is a fast paced easy to read page turner!  Selena Beatrice Jones aka 'SB' to her friends, 2nd wife of Pastor Woodruff T. Jones is convinced she's been called to move her husband's traditional Baptist church into the 21st century.  Out to save her floundering marriage and tired of her daughter-in-law's jealousy and animosity, SB partners with a local politician who also has a master plan.  Commissioner  Reginald Thompson III leaves no stone unturned as he recruits a NYC operative to guide his singular focused search for power via his master plan.The author's well developed characters and convincing dialogue thrust you as reader into the lives of a host of likable people and their day to day challenges; each following and several actively creating their own personal paths to purpose.  Following the characters over their often intersecting and many times divergent paths made me feel as though I was 'walking a maze' never knowing where the next path would take me.The novel is set in fictional Smoothville, Georgia where residents are just as quick to give you a hearty, 'hey y'all'  as to curse you out--all in the name of their God!I enjoyed this novel because it explores  sensitive relationship issues  including trust,  marital fidelity, race, spiritual beliefs, family and friendships.  I am impressed with Ms. Tullis' creative use of humor and satire to refine and shape her characters and tell their story.  I commend the author on her debut novel and look forward to reading her next.
