It is said that a flame burns brightest in the darkest of times. Everything in life is energy and nothing exists that is not connected and linked together, be it people, events, circumstances, or that which we call fate. Inevitably, everything we do in life has a consequence and will eventually play itself out. This audiobook tells the story of five strangers who have no idea how their lives are about to change when past events set in motion long ago start to pull them together to play out and heal wounds that are still, after all this time, festering and raw. To get to the other side, to change and transform the dark energy from the past, they need to find courage and learn to trust each other with their own deepest darkest fears and secrets. It is an audiobook of overcoming personal fears, courage, hope and eventual triumph and will keep you listening until the very end.
