From the bestselling author of Tides of Honour and Promises to Keep comes a poignant novel about a young couple caught on opposite sides of the Second World War. In the fall of 1939, Grace Baker’s three brothers, sharp and proud in their uniforms, board Canadian ships headed for a faraway war.

But three years later, the fighting rages on and rumours swirl about “wolf packs” of German U-Boats lurking in the deep waters along the shores of East Jeddore, a stone’s throw from Grace’s window. As the harsh realities of war come closer to home, Grace buries herself in her work at the store. Then, one day, a handsome stranger ventures into the store. He claims to be a trapper come from away, and as Grace gets to know him, she becomes enamoured by his gentle smile and thoughtful ways. But after several weeks, she discovers that Rudi, her mysterious visitor, is not the lonely outsider he appears to be. He is someone else entirely—someone not to be trusted. When a shocking truth about her family forces Grace to question everything she has so strongly believed, she realizes that she and Rudi have more in common than she had thought. And if Grace is to have a chance at love, she must not only choose a side, but take a stand.

Are you walking in the victory Jesus purchased for you at the cross? Do you want a more intimate relationship with God? Are you willing to do what it takes to remove any obstacles in your spiritual walk? Author, Ginger Schievelbein, uses the basic steps outlined in James 4:7-8 to guide you through the process of healing and deliverance. She uses the gift of discernment of spirits and her ten years of ministry experiences to expand and emphasize the truth of these verses. This book is designed for individual or group study, and will teach you how to have more of God and less of yourself as you come near to Him. Ginger Schievelbein is a first time author who grew up in a typical Christian home. At the age of fifteen, she encountered God and received the gift of discernment of spirits. Since she did not fully understand the gift, she kept it a secret for ten years. Gradually, she began to share some of her spiritual experiences with the adults and children under her ministry. Ten years later, God asked her to step down from those responsibilities so that He could send more people to her for personal prayer and deliverance. This ministry has grown, and recently she became an ordained minister. She and her husband reside in Texas where she homeschools their two teenagers.
