Summary: From The Dark Places
Review: **** Not truly comprehending what frightens her, Kate runs into the street into the path of an oncoming car, and destiny. When she wakes in the hospital, she is introduced to people who will change her and her daughter's lives forever. Despite her unbelief, Kate is forced to accept that her daughter, Sara, is the target of an Ancient evil, and take her into hiding. Their liason with the outside world is Ray, a man she grows to love as they battle darkness together. All too soon, their fragile joy will be threatened, requiring all their resources of love in this life and the world beyond to be utilized to save everyone.

Even before the author began quoting CS Lewis and Madeline L'engle, I was thinking of this as something that people who enjoyed their books as children would eagerly grab. Within the action packed thriller is a message of hope and overcoming that speaks to so many today and shows that joy is not separate from sorrow altogether. ****
