In ancient Greek mythology, Athena of Olympus effected strategic warfare; Helen of Troy caused mortals to sin because of her beauty; and Medusa transformed people with a stare.
In modern-day Atlanta, Georgia, 33-year-old retired Olympic track-and-field gold-medalist Grace Gresham-Nelson does the same things...even (in the case of the last two abilities) when she does not mean to.
Although merely human, Grace has achieved mythical status at Beck Academy, an elite, historically Black all-girl school where Grace is a nationally successful athletics director and the most admired, stylish, and popular member of the faculty.
She is also the most private. Thus, what her students and colleagues don't know is that not everything that glitters in Grace's life...is gold.

AMAZED BY HER GRACE
For anyone who's ever had a crush on a teacher.
More about that later. Keep reading!
“The series hums with conflict and surprise, and what’s even more satisfying is the remarkable interiority of Walker’s characters.
We not only observe Grace, Tracy, Darrel, Charmaine, and the others, but enter into their heads and hearts—so that we happily celebrate their virtues and begin to understand their failings.”
- David J. Hogan, author of numerous works examining the cultural influence of cinema, and editor-in-chief of the best-selling The Holocaust Chronicle.
David Brown Jr., stage and screen actor
“As they negotiate sex and marriage, the streets, personal and professional competition, and their spiritual lives, Walker’s characters grow, stumble, and then grow some more. This is rich stuff.”
- David J. Hogan, Chicago author and retired executive editor & book publisher (including Legacy Imprint's Chronicle series).
