| He was hoping to start over, but former convict Darrell Miller witnesses a horrible violent act that has him fleeing for safety with pursuers chasing him. He ducks inside a church, seeking a respite and time to figure out what to do, while a service is going on.
Pregnant Jenny Emerson will give birth in the next few weeks by herself. Her boyfriend, Mark, has rejected their child and consequently her. She sits in a pew praying for a miracle. After thirty plus years together, Alan Pennington informs his wife Dorothy that he is leaving her for a younger woman. Stunned she feels deserted by one and all, including God whom she had always firmly worshiped. Sixty-five years old Joe Myers is having doubts about God as everyday he reads about murders and rapes in the streets. As the violence rises, his faith wanes. These four lost souls have come together at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in need of miracles. What they get is each other, but can they help each other gain a renewed faith in the goodness of humanity? This inspirational tale will provide plenty of solace to readers interested in an upbeat contemporary story. The issues seem monumental, especially to the individuals confronted with them; and Bobbi Smith does a superb job laying out the problems. However, the key characters and important secondary players are never fully developed, so that the impact is somewhat abated. Still Haven is a fine uplifting tale of faith lost and faith found. | |||
