Dalton's writing is rich and evocative, drawing the reader into Sarah's world and making them feel as though they are right there alongside her.

At its heart, "Midnight Faith" is a novel about the power of faith to sustain and inspire us, even in the darkest of times. Through Sarah's struggles and triumphs, Dalton shows us that faith is not just a set of beliefs or practices, but a living, breathing force that can help us find meaning, purpose, and connection in our lives.
