Becomings: Winter Fade Stories (Winter Fade Series)

By Matthew Lee Adams

"Winter Fade" Stories"Becomings" reveals the stories behind three characters from the "Winter Fade" series - Isabel, Darya, and Katharine.Born in different eras and tested by the events surrounding them, their paths will eventually intersect many decades after their lives changed forever."Who is she?""Someone who has transcended."When Isabel met Jeremy, she was as much enraptured by his mystery as he was by hers. A simple choice to follow him one night in 1924 set her upon a new path, one shaped by trust, and guided by stars.--"How many?""I don't count them. I only shoot them."Darya left behind her life as a pianist just before Leningrad became encircled. She found a new purpose in the winter struggles of the Battle of Stalingrad - as a sniper. Her discipline became her shield, and her passion her strength. But she never imagined the other strange turns her life would take . . .--"Did you join, intending to cover yourself in glory?""We got covered in a lot of things. Most of 'em not very glorious."Katharine believed in her calling as a nurse in Camp Douglas during the bitter days of the Civil War. Yet the arrival of a new prisoner, a Texan named Jake, became a central part of a series of events that would have fateful consequences for her and those she loved.
