Critics Review

“In The Sign Painter, Bunn brings readers into the heart of humanity—helping those who cannot help themselves… . This novel moves quickly with twists and turns along the way that keep readers excited and engaged.” * Romantic Times (four stars) *
“I received a pre-publication copy of The Sign Painter last Friday afternoon, and by 2:30 a.m. Saturday morning I had read it in its entirety. I loved it! I was crying by page 16. Davis Bunn has written a fascinating and engaging book, helping us understand the struggles millions of men, women, and children experience when they find themselves without the resources to survive. A wonderfully crafted story that is profoundly captivating.” – Patrick Robertson, President, Cityteam
“Once again Davis delivers a work that is hard to put down. The Sign Painter provides an inside view of the plight of homelessness. You will never look at the homeless the same way again. In addition, the book loudly proclaims the silent and committed work of those who care for the poor. Rooting for a sequel!” – Phil Schultz, Executive Director, Jefferson Street Baptist Center
“Davis Bunn is a master craftsman. He blends the perfect amount of compassion, intrigue, complexity, and then overdoses with six parts of excitement. He leaves me with tears in my eyes and thinking I’ve had three or four heart attacks. The Sign Painter is a really good story, recommend highly.” – Ray Hall, Founder of Prison Book Project
“In these difficult economic times many thousandsof lives have been upended. The SignPainter chronicles a mother and daughter who are at the end of theirrope after being rendered homeless. Their path back to a semblance of stabilitycomes through the grace of an outreach ministry which touches lives andhearts with the love of Christ. Their tumultuous journey is one of faith inaction.” – Noel Mountain, Board of Directors, His PlaceMinistries
The Sign Painter is an amazing story of the sustaining, redemptive power of faith and a vibrant biblical community—all rolled into a high-stakes, pulse-pounding police drama. Davis Bunn proves once again why he is truly a master storyteller.” – Mark Mynheir, former homicide detective and author of The Corruptible
