Synopsis

In a storm-battered world of loss and longing, a family fights to hold onto faith and hope.

Set against a harsh December night and a bustling city, this tale follows characters wrestling with disappointment, desire, and the sense that life should hold more than wealth and fame. As secrets surface and hearts strain under pressure, the journey toward redemption begins with acts of care, courage, and a search for meaning beyond ambition.

• Experience a stark portrait of faith tested by hardship and tragedy.
• Meet characters driven by love, pride, and thecosts of chasing a better life.
• Feel the pull between worldly success and spiritual hope in a vivid urban setting.
• See how kindness and steadfastness can begin to heal broken dreams.

Ideal for readers who enjoy historical fiction that blends intimate human drama with questions of faith, loss, and renewal.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A bout one year ago our hearts were in deepest sympathy with our fellow-citizens of Chicago, and it occurred to me that their losses, sufferings, and fortitude might teach lessons after the echoes of the appalling event had died away in the press; and that even the lurid and destructive flames might reveal with greater vividness the need and value of Christian faith. I spent some days among the smouldering ruins, and then began the following simple story, which has grown into larger proportions than I at first intended. But comparatively a small part of the narrative is occupied with the fire, for its scenes are beyond description, and too strange and terrible to be dwelt upon. Therefore the thread of my story is carried rapidly through that period of unparalleled excitement and disaster. Nearly all the scenes introduced are historical, and are employed to give their terrible emphasis to that which is equally true in the serenest and securest times. B. P. R.
