The Reluctant Healer Of Halifax (Enduring Hope)
|
Her Family, Her Home, Her Future—All Leveled in One Thunderous Explosion
When life seems weighed down by challenges, there are always pillars of enduring hope and love to be discovered.
Just three days ago, Pearline Campbell’s life was good. Her family was whole, and her fiancé—a soldier in the Great War—still loved her. But upon returning to Halifax disfigured and shellshocked, Oliver Hamilton broke off their engagement. Then came Thursday, December 6, 1917, when the Halifax harbor was leveled by a tremendous explosion. . .and Pearline fears nothing will ever be right again. Her parents are dead, one of her sisters is missing, and she must fortify herself to open her home to the many in need. Where can she find the strength for each new day as misery grips the city?
