From the creator/director of the Love Comes
Softly film series--
A story both bittersweet and heartwarming of a mother and
her son...and of his unusual gift.
The decade of the 'thirties was a time of enormous uncertainty--for
the world, for America, and in particular for one lonely,
struggling mother and her disabled son. Their story is one of
unyielding love and incredible sacrifices in the face of
circumstances beyond belief.
But then The Gift appears...where has it come from, and why? How
can a young boy who cannot communicate provide comfort and
direction to seekers who learn of the special ability? Whatever the
source, its presence brings a single shaft of light and hope to
Mary and her beloved son, Jack....Will it be enough?
A novel filled with passion, with yearning...and with hope.
