After two years of serving as a missionary in a remote area of South America, Daria Camfield has returned to the States to mourn her husband, reportedly killed while providing medical aid to a neighboring Colombian village.
At first, Daria finds comfort only in the daughter born to her after Nate's tragic death. As she begins to heal, she also finds a listening ear and a tender heart in her new boss, veterinarian Colson Hunter. Determined to move forward with life, Daria ignores the still small voice calling her to wait and accepts Cole's marriage proposal. But after the wedding, Daria's new dream life turns into a nightmare with the arrival of an unbelievable telegram: "Nathan Camfield found alive. Flying into K.C. Int'l. via Bogota..."
Rebecca Cook illuminates the spiritual aspects of Raney's story of heartbreak and redemption. When Daria Camfield, a young widow, is faced with difficult decisions, Cook easily delivers the Lord's message of service to others and forgiveness for human frailties. At the same time, she maintains solid characterizations and pacing throughout. Although this story is a bit preachy and things come together too easily for Daria when her world falls apart several times over, Cook carries it off with her kind and gentle tone and makes the listener believe in the underlying message. This is a solid beginning for a Christian-focused series that is sure to gain a wide following. D.L.M. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
