From the Eckhartz Bookshelf: Down at the Golden Coin

With over 80 books in our library, this year we're taking some time every week to highlight one of the books on the Eckhartz bookshelf. This week's book is Down at the Golden Coin by Kim Strickland .This was second book we ever published.


How would your life change if you met your Messiah at the laundromat?

During the horrible economic downturn, former airline pilot, Annie Mullard, feels she’s sunk to a new low when she’s forced to go to a run-down laundromat, The Golden Coin, after her washing machine breaks, but it’s here she meets a Messiah. Even though twenty-something, blue-haired Violet isn’t anyone’s idea of a Messiah, she can read minds, levitate Tide with Bleach Alternative and send Annie into past lives. It doesn’t take long before Violet has Annie’s quiet morning in the laundromat spinning as out of control as the rest of her life.

  • Strickland beautifully weaves a story that shows the ability we have to change our lives and ultimately find that elusive happiness. She brings together powerful words and concepts of self-responsibility, passion, faith in oneself and universal experiences to demonstrate how we can write our own happy ending.
