Description
About the Book
Discover the story of a young woman—ambitious, smart, driven—and her struggle to thrive and succeed in a very patriarchal society in Africa. When both her personal and professional life descends into darkness, she learns that there is only one true source of light and hope in this sinful world. As adversity strikes, again and again, she returns to her spiritual roots and dedicates her life to the God who saved her in the midst of personal hell.
“At first, I regretted having accepted to read your voluminous manuscript. So, while attending a seminar, during break time, I perused the first pages, hoping to find an excuse to return it to you. However, when I began reading, I could not stop. I started using my lunch break and squeezing time here and there, often escaping to my car or isolating myself, to read it. It is a page-turner.”
—Pastor, Dr. Stanley Reginald Michael

An extremely powerful life story...
TEACH Services received the following review: "An extremely powerful life story that has touched me profoundly. The protagonist’s exceptional faith and mental strength are a bulwark against succumbing to her struggles. She remains resilient and defies her sudden misfortune. Similar tragic experiences have been recounted before, but never in such a vivid manner. This is a therapy for the soul. I strongly recommend this book not just for those seeking happiness after a fatal divorce, but also for all who want to understand the true meaning of forgiveness. It is not something done just for the sake of others, but an indispensable step for the initiator to move on." Rebecca Andrew Kong LLM, Women’s Rights Advocate Former diplomat in the MFA, South Sudan
