Can the Majesty of Alaska Foster Hope and Healing for Those Who Need it Most?
After the death of their father, Collette and Jean-Michel Langelier are no longer tied to post-war France. While his sister dreams of adventure, Jean-Michel is hoping to finally escape reminders of the horrors he faced in the Great Syrian Revolt of 1925. When an unexpected invitation for them to visit Alaska and the Curry Hotel arrives, it seems the perfect opportunity.
Young widow Katherine Demarchis is also traveling to the foot of Mt. Denali with her grandmother--a last trip before she retreats into a quiet and solitary life, finally free of the dangerous husband she was forced to marry. Yet when she encounters there a Frenchman from her past, her plans for the future are thrown into question.
Both haunted by the violence of their pasts, can Katherine and Jean-Michel rediscover the bond they once had? Or, when Jean-Michel's nightmares return with terrifying consequences, will it be impossible to heal what's been broken for so long?
Out of the Ashes has such a shocking out of the sky, blasting, pounding with your heart beat beginning, your heart is stunned and broken, then it is immediately contrasted with heartbreak, but then you have two peoples stories - Jean -Michel's and Katherine's. Poor Jean-Michel goes through something so very traumatic - something I never want to ever go through but something - I am sad to say - exactly that so many are going through today that he went through in 1925. Now Katherine - she went through something that many people have gone through - but I am sorry they have gone through it - After all that they visit Alaska - while there Katherine sees someone - a man - from her past and Jean-Michel sees someone from his nightmares - Can he handle it? Well with GOD all things are possible because you can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens you - so ...........what will happen to them both when their pasts catch up to them?
