The Unexpected Reformation of Jimmy Valentine

The Unexpected Reformation of Jimmy Valentine delights us with a surprise ending in this sweet, entertaining tale of forgiveness and restoration.  When a student unremorsefully admits that she stole a bracelet from another pupil, a wise teacher tells her the story of the crackerjack criminal Jimmy Valentine. Released from prison at the turn of the twentieth century, it doesn’t take long for the highly skilled safecracker to fall back into old habits.  There’s not a Midwest bank safe secure from Jimmy’s professional prying — even with a shrewd detective in tireless pursuit. But when Jimmy’s travels lead him to the sleepy town of Elmore, a beautiful bank manager’s daughter inspires change. When a crisis puts a little girl in danger, will Jimmy stick to his new upright life, or must he expose his scandalous past and risk losing the woman he loves?
