Kieth Merrill, Academy Award Winning Filmmaker "If you want to know more about Merrill than you've ever discovered in any interview or article, then you need this book.” Gino Tutera MD. F.A.C.O.G. Medical Director SottoPelle® "Not everyone who has a great gift leads a charmed life. In his novel ‘Faith, Hope & Gravity,’ the lesson is the importance of rising above adversity, taking miracles as they come and keeping faith with what you know to be true. " Senator Orrin Hatch   "‘Faith, Hope and Gravity,’ is a fascinating story, well conceived and beautifully written. Having a gift does not always mean everything will be laid out for you. The book leaves you wondering whether the main character is Liam Kane, or is it indeed Merrill Osmond. A wonderful read, and hailed by critics as a great piece of fiction."
