Fire and Forgiveness: The Cindy Ames Story

By Andrea Neptune

Book Overview

It was May 1982 in Truckee, California, when Cindy Ames arrived home after working back-to-back shifts in the ER. Exhausted, she made breakfast, put her four-year-old son down for a nap, and fell into bed. A short time later, the sound of a dog barking woke her from a deep sleep. What happened next would change her life forever. In a gripping narrative, Andrea Neptune recounts Cindy's traumatic experiences after she was caught in a house fire and forced to jump out of a third-story window with her son. With her body scarred from the devastating blaze, Cindy faced morphine induced nightmares, fierce internal and external battles, and a profound spiritual encounter that became a beacon of hope in her darkest hours. Against all odds, Cindy's journey unfolds as a riveting tale of survival, resilience, and the unyielding strength of the human spirit-even as the authorities eventually identified an arson suspect, and she was forced to once again face a fire head-on in Paradise, California, years later. Fire and Forgiveness is an incredible tale of survival after a devastating house fire leads a woman on a powerful journey of faith, justice, and forgiveness.

"This book is riveting ... I think that this book should be required reading for anyone going into burn nursing or any type of burn care." Elaine Rojas - RN
