What
a pleasant novel to read during the Christmas season.
A
couple is healing from pain of a stillbirth the Christmas before.
Amanda had been a nurse in the hospital natal unit. She could not
face returning to that job and had been appointed personal assistant
to the hospital's director. She excelled, even as she pushed down
her pain.
Her
husband Christ was with an electronics company, a company that looked
like it was facing bankruptcy soon.
Their
neighbors, an older couple, had received word their estranged
daughter wanted to reconnect – again. Would it be like the last
time she showed up, stealing her mother's jewelry and going back to
drugs?
The
lives of these two couples intertwine as the women travel to Israel
and the men face their concerns at home. God graciously acts through
the prayers of others as healing takes place in each of their lives.
A
pleasant and satisfying novel.
