Dear Reader,

I’m so glad you could join me in this threebook journey through the state of North Dakota. The state is not only one of the biggest crop producers in the country, it has also been home to most of the country’s nuclear missile sites built during the Cold War. With nothing but stars for miles and miles on a dark night—the wide, lone North Dakota prairie is a stargazer’s dream, as you’ll read in Disarming Andi.

The Badlands are rich in history and attract scientists—geologists and paleontologists, to name a few—from around the world. If that’s not enough, Fargo is home to numerous high-tech companies, including a Microsoft Campus, and is in line to possibly become the next Silicon Valley.

With the backdrop of an incredibly diverse state, there’s no end to story possibilities, and as you’ll see, I’ve tried to include a little bit of everything you might find on a drive through this state that’s rich in history and a culture all its own. On the journey, I hope you’ll find yourself in a deeper place with God just as the characters work their way through the challenges life presents only to find God was there with them all along.

I pray many blessings on you.
