O knihe

There are no second chances for life
versus death in the remote hollows of the Appalachian
Mountains. Alma Lee Holcomb, a young woman of sixteen and
her younger brother, Jacob, discover this when a tragic
accident takes the lives of their parents, Winfred and
Grace. The children's lives are turned upside down, far
beyond anything imaginable. Setting their grief aside, they
immerse themselves in the task of surviving within the
isolation of Winder Hollow.
But their triumph
over adversity is short-lived. When nineteen-year-old Alma
Lee is confronted with a life-threatening illness, they are
forced out of the hollow and into a modern world that is
completely foreign to them. Courage and an undying bond
between brother and sister serve them well in the modern
world. Alma Lee and Jacob make their way in this uncharted
territory, while never abandoning their humble beginnings
and the mountains they love.
Jacob and Alma Lee
come full circle when they return to Winder Hollow. The
culmination of their dedication to a dream ends in a wave of
emotions, as a memory from the past is revealed.
