I will not post spoilers but there is a bit of a twist I just did not see coming. Jessica has suffered a gunshot to the abdomen during the Paris Attack and wakes up in a hospital. Her only comfort is her friend Patrick, who is with her to encourage her to stay in France and not rush home to Denver. Her best friend Vonda who was at the club with her during the attack is leaving to return to the states. Jessica is in a turmoil as she is trying to heal and seems to have lost her faith. She wants to forget the horrors she experienced and saw during the attack.
Later she decides to accompany Patrick on the trip through the country hoping it will ease her sense of loss. Patrick loves to pick through flea markets looking for hidden treasures in old items others would never notice. During one shopping and picking trip Jessica finds a very old wooden sewing box with the letters CSF on the bottom. She is drawn to this 17th century box and is about to embark on a quest which will help her to heal.
The search for answers about the secrets in the sewing box will lead Jessica to learn about the persecuted French Huguenots. As she is drawn further into the story of a family and a particular young woman fleeing her country, Jessica learns about having courage, wisdom, and faith.
An excellent book!
