A wilderness journey to prove the heart.Retreating from the world and all its troubles violinist T. Sebastian Morrow moves from Houston to rural Texas. Instead of peace and safety he encounters tribulation in every aspect of life-domestic financial professional and spiritual. His unlikely guide through the wilderness is young Leo de Graaf a gifted and clairvoyant musician whose insights lend Sebastian clarity and strength. When tragedy strikes Leo and his beautiful mother Silvie it is Sebastians fateful decision that will determine the outcome.I marvel at Bergins characters her plots and her vigorous style. And of course the emphasis on music and spirituality speaks strongly to me as it will I expect to many others.-William Gilbert Associate Professor of English University of Houston-Downtown
