About the Book: (from Charisma House Book Group)
Struggling after losing their own child, Jim and Amy Spencer agree to take in 9-year-old Louisa---who mysteriously appeared with no memory of where she came from. But when the girl's special gift of healing hurting hearts puts her in contact with a serial killer, can the grieving couple unite and save Louisa before it's too late?
My Thoughts:
“It’s not magic, and it’s not about me. It’s about surrendering to God’s will.” (Jim
to Louisa)
Louisa – a nine-year-old miracle worker? No.
Just a lost, damaged little girl who mysteriously appears on the night
that fire destroys Jake Tucker’s home.
Louisa comes to live with Jim and Amy and their begin to change in
significant ways – all of which mystify the residents of Virginia Mills. What is this mystery? Something quite normal in the lives of
believers…prayer. Or is it normal? Is it powerful? If it is powerful, what makes
it effective?
All of these questions are explored on some level… and all
the while evil has taken a malevolent hold in this same small town, and folks
are being taken from life randomly and violently. The police force and the town’s residents are
becoming more and more unsettled in the midst of the dueling forces that have
overtaken the small town. They are torn
between life-changing hope and paralyzing
fear.
At one point, Jim makes an observation that it “…was as if a
storm were coming, a great tempest with churning black clouds and rumbles of
thunder, and he needed to do something to prepare but lacked the knowledge to
complete the task.” Oh, what knowledge
and faith they all lack!! And what trauma and evil they all must face before
they ever learn what is lacking!
Mike Dellosso has crafted a masterful, ever increasing tense
plot that will grip your heart and never let it go. This is a story about brokenness, healing, family
and community. Ultimately it deals with
what everyone must face – their faith – or lack thereof – in the face of evil
and its consequences. Who will survive
this onslaught? You MUST pick up a copy
of Fearless today!! This is an unforgettable read!!
