The Touch of Abner is the story of Abner Andrews, a cranky old farmer who makes a false promise of giving a thousand dollars to a new orphanage. The question throughout the novel is how he will fulfill his commitment as he now lacks such a huge amount of money. The task looks even more unattainable with his crooked lawyer. He takes on his nemesis and acquaintances with impulsive enthusiasm, resulting in chaos. Abner suffers a few falls along the way because of his irritable temper. One unique character trait of the old farmer is that he amuses himself by telling lies and purposely mishearing people for comic effect. This light-hearted story full of humor delights the readers with its lifelike characters and exciting plot.

Abner Garcia Falero, the son of a renowned pastor, grew up in the shadow of his parents' painful divorce. His life began to unravel at an escalating pace when, as a young boy, he realized that his broken family now lived in the shade of poverty and rejection. Confronted by constant struggle, juvenile delinquency, a life of crime and violence, and an overwhelming feeling of hopelessness, Abner had to choose between life and death. It was the consequences of his decisions that led him to the singular most life-altering encounter he would ever experience. This moment of divine intervention ultimately led him to his destiny-to be a witness of God's tremendous power and grace to rescue a life from the grip of darkness and bring it into the light.
