Synopsis

A journey of friendship, faith, and redemption set against a turbulent era. A young traveler named Severin follows a guiding raven’s feather across cities and seas, seeking a way home and a reconnection with those he loves. Through danger, longing, and prayer, the book traces how a single symbol can awaken memory, conviction, and hope.

In a tale that moves from harbor to market square to the riverbank, Severin befriends a trusted companion who shares his faith and his longing for truth. They face political upheaval, church and family pressures, and the lure of a life far from Providence, while discovering that true belonging comes from humility, mercy, and trust in a higher calling.

- A voyage that crosses ages and shores, from Hamburg to London and beyond, guided by a mysterious feather and a steadfast faith.
- Moments of quiet reflection and bold decisions as characters seek meaning, forgiveness, and reconciliation.
- The power of friendship to restore a wounded past and light a hopeful path forward.
- Lessons about choosing integrity, prayer, and remaining loyal to one’s spiritual convictions.

Ideal for readers who enjoy faith-centered tales of courage, friendship, and second chances, where everyday decisions shape a hopeful future.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

May, in the year 1780, a boy, fifteen years of age, was standing on Blackfriars Bridge, in London, gazing intently on the dome of St. Paul s Cathedral, in its immediate vicinity. A fresh east wind had driven away the smoky clouds which usually hover over the city, and the sun was just setting in the west over St. James s. The boy was cleanly but poorly clothed, and looked pale and wan, as if he had had but little food; and such was really the case. His father, a German mechanic, had come to London to seek employment. After many fruitless endeavours, he at last succeeded, but in less than six months died. His mother had died in Germany some time before; and poor Severin, the only child, was now quite alone in a foreign land. His father had only left sufficient money to allow of his being decently buried, and the few friends he had acquired during his short stay in London had neither the means nor the inclination to take care of the orphan boy. For three days he had not had a regular meal, and he felt thankful that a kind-hearted baker had once given him a small piece of bread. But poor Severin had learned what many rich people do not understand, he had learned to pray.
