Thought for Today
You can close the windows and darken your room, and you can open the
windows and let light in. It is a matter of choice. Your mind is your
room. Do you darken it or do you fill it with light?

About the book
A Man with a Past...For ten years, Gabe Talmadge languished
in prison, convicted of a horrible crime. Now, he is free once again but
unable to find work in the midst of the Great Depression. In
desperation, Gabe returns to Ransom, Idaho, hoping that his uncaring
father will give him food and shelter, if not love. But the prodigal son
is not welcomed home. Hudson Talmadge, who virtually owns the town of
Ransom, despises his youngest son as much as ever-and Gabe is as
powerless to win his father's approval as when he was a child.
A Man with a Future...Hungry
and hopeless, Gabe is rescued by the owner of a sheep ranch south of
Ransom. Incredibly, Akira Macauley gives him a place to live and work to
do. More than that, she gives him hope that he can receive forgiveness
for his past-and perhaps even love.
A Man with a Choice...But
just as Gabe comes to believe that happiness may be within his grasp,
tragedy strikes Ransom once more. As his life begins to unravel, Gabe
must either sink again into an abyss of hopelessness or cling to a hope,
faith, and love stronger than any he has ever known.
