About this audiobook
How long is a body expected to keep a secret?
When Minerva Jane Jenkins was just fourteen years old, she married a man who moved her to the mountains. He carried with him a small box, which he told her held gold. And when he died fifty years later, he made her promise to tell no one about the box or the treasure it contained.
Now at ninety-four, Minerva is nearing the end of what has sometimes been a lonely life. But she’s kept her promise. Even so, rumors of hidden gold have a way of spreading, and Minerva is visited by a reporter, Del Rankin, who wants to know more of her story.
As an unlikely friendship develops, Minerva is tempted to reveal her secret to Del.
But the truth of what’s really buried in the box may be hidden even from her.

This is Where it Ends is an emotion journey with a darling 94 year old heroine who will capture your heart. I wasn’t sure going in if I would enjoy this book. I’m primarily a romance reader, but I also love a good mystery. The fact that Cindy K. Sproles was able to hook me and keep me engaged is a testament to the power of great storytelling. It’s an exploration of love, secrets, family, faith, loneliness, greed, and death.

This southern girl has seen and heard some feisty mamaws in her day, so Minerva Jenkins was an expected and perfect mix of cranky and cantankerous, while still keeping things close to the vest. She had lived alone on the mountain for years until Del Rankin came calling. As he stuck around for a time, Minerva began to realize that having relationships with others, as well as with God, was what made life worthwhile and that secrets, and promises to keep them, were way more trouble than their worth
