Publisher's summary

Thomas McGurrin is a fourth-grade teacher and openly gay man at a private primary school serving Portland, Oregon's wealthy progressive elite when he is falsely accused of inappropriately touching a male student. The accusation comes just as Thomas is thrust back into the center of his unusual family by his younger brother's battle with cancer. Although cleared of the accusation, Thomas is forced to resign from a job he loves during a potentially life-changing family drama.

Davison's novel explores the discrepancy between the progressive ideals and persistent negative stereotypes among the privileged regarding social status, race, and sexual orientation and the impact of that discrepancy on friendships and family relations.

There’s No Doubt Here

This story is incredible. This is a story about enduring, but also overcoming. There are some incredible conversations that take place here and should continue long after reading. This is an inherently queer story, and Doubting Thomas honors this while also holding space for other readers to come in and enjoy. I cannot recommend this story enough, there are many conversations about pedophilia/sexual predation, addiction, racism, and displays of homophobia, but if you can deal with this it is well-worth it.
