The Song Awakens (Book 1 of the Cracked Quartet Series)

By Linda Sammaritan

Description:

Following her missionary husband’s death, Stefania Patterson, has returned to America and to her best friends from college, affectionately dubbed The Cracked Quartet. Thirteen years earlier, Stefania and Joe left their three children with relatives to protect them from disease and unrest in central Africa. At least, that’s what she told everyone.

However.

Stefania lives with the guilt of one unguarded moment and cannot forgive herself, which leaves her sleepwalking through life. She’s convinced the loss of her children is God’s punishment.

Even though she doesn’t deserve it, she longs to reconnect with Colin, Nathan, and Lila. It may be an impossible mission, especially when it comes to her daughter who has made it clear Stefania is not welcome in her life.

With the help of the Cracked Quartet’s “Operation Reconciliation,” Stefania gathers courage to reach out to her adult children.
But she’ll have to come clean about her past—or she’ll never be free of its burden.

Book Takeaway:

God always forgives when we ask. True friends also forgive us.

Why the author wrote this book:

Women believe all kinds of lies in our society and from the otherworld of darkness. This book (and this series) works to dispel those lies.
