In this episode of Book Talk with Cara, host Cara Putman catches up with longtime friend and bestselling author Deborah Raney! Deb drops in to discuss her new release, Who Names the Stars?, the third standalone novel in her God Who series exploring different attributes of God’s character.

Deb opens up about her life on the road traveling in a camper van with her husband, her joy in grandparenthood, and what it’s like having five different editors look at a manuscript before her husband catches the final typos. She shares the heartwarming behind-the-scenes story of writing this novel with her 93-year-old father as her chief Kansas ranching researcher, the challenge of writing a realistic modern-day “marriage of convenience”, and why redemption remains the central thread of her storytelling.

Plus, stick around for our signature Lightning Round, where Deb reveals her secret “Easter egg” word hidden in every single one of her novels!
