A Land of Sheltered Promise -- Jane Kirkpatrick

<b>Follow three women from three eras in the Pacific Northwest as they discover a place where miracles really happen--based on true stories. <p/>1901: </b>Plagued by loneliness on the Big Muddy Ranch, a sheepherder's wife awaits the outcome of her husband's trial for murder. He is sentenced to life in prison--and she to life without him. But a startling event could redeem their pasts and transform their future. <p/> <b>1984: </b>Against a backdrop of attempted murder, federal indictments, and the first case of bio-terrorism in the U.S., one woman seeks to rescue her granddaughter from within the elaborate compound of a cult that has claimed the land. <p/> <b>1997: </b>On the much-reviled, abandoned cult site, one woman's skepticism turns to hope when she finds that what was meant to destroy can be used to rebuild--and in the process realizes a long-held dream. <p/> For three women seekers united across time, a remote and rugged stretch of land in the Pacific Northwest proves to be a place where miracles really happen--and the gifts of faith, hope, and charity are as tangible as rocks, rivers, and earth.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Jane Kirkpatrick<br><b>Publisher:</b> Christian/Forum<br><b>Published:</b> 04/19/2005<br><b>Pages:</b> 432<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.89lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.26h x 5.49w x 1.12d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781578567331<br><b>Award:</b> Spur Awards - Finalist<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Booklist</i> 06/01/2005 pg. 1755<br><i>I
