review 1: Others have given a good overview of this book, so I'll just say that I thought this book did a really good job of reminding us to look beyond a person's outward appearance and see that many times, it's a mask for deep hurt inside. This is part of a conversation between Stephen and Potsy (his grandfather)... (Potsy) "Kinda like Midnight and her barbwire scars. Crazy, wild thing. Got herself caught in the wire and fought to free herself. Deeper the wire cut, the more she kicked. The tighter that wire wound." (Stephen) "Potsy, are we talkin' about Midnight or Anne Wells?" "Not much difference, is there? Scars always gonna be there, son. But you seen in Anne's eyes what I see in this little filly here. She has a heart that wants to be right with heaven and earth..."... moreDefinitely worth your time!
review 2: Another great book by the Thoenes. This book was read and presented by the author Bodie Thoene and I loved hearing one of my favorite authors present this great redeeming story. It is a story of a family who's faith in God long ago died, yet events push them to look to the only One who can take their pieces of thier shattered life and put it back together. In it we find what happens when lies come to the surface and the pain one lie can cause. I loved the end the most, it was presented with flare and it was fast paced...it had my heart racing and actually praying for the characters. This story explores so many subjects with wisdom and in the end shows us that there is after all hope even in the darkest night...and perhaps that it is in the darkest night taht we can see beyond the farthest start and see what is beyond it. Loved it! less

Would be better if the story was filled out more. This seemed almost to be an outline of a story.

This writing husband/wife team has written some interesting books but this wasn't one of them.
