|  | Whispers from Yesterday by Robin Lee Hatcher
As the reluctant newest resident of her grandmother Sophia`s ranch, Karen Butler wants nothing more than to return to L.A. But there`s no going back to the past. Her father is dead, her family home sold. Her finances and options are exhausted -- her hope, gone. Also living at the ranch is Dusty Stoddard, who operates a summer camp for troubled teens on the Golden T In this strange setting, far from everything familiar, Karen is surrounded by people who love God and seek to serve Him. She wants to escape, to return to her old way of life. Yet the call to her heart is unmistakable. And in the old diaries of a woman who died twenty-eight years before she was born, Karen discovers hidden secrets and amazing truths that will cause her to finally find her way to the greatest love of all. Powerfully illustrating that God does have a plan for each person`s life and can use every individual to fulfill His purposes, Whispers of Yesterday offers a dramatic story of healing, hope, and God`s compassion.
