I've set my year off on the right foot by reading Winter Passing. It's an epic tale of a woman's pursuit of her family's history.
When her grandmother passes on, Darby Evans latches onto the dying wish -- that Darby visits Austria and sets things aright, concerning her grandmother's best friend. Grandmother Celia, born in Austria, escaped during World War II after the country was overtaken by the German occupation. Upon the start of her investigation, she starts to realize that her grandmother left many things unsaid, some of it too gruesome. Celia had lived through a lot more than she had ever told her daughter or grandchildren.
Darby soon actualizes the fateful trip to Austria that will change her life. Once there, she will meet helpful villagers and also those who know the truth, but won't tell. In an incredible challenge, she scours historical documents, positions herself in dangerous situations, adjusts to life in Europe, and realizes that history doesn't give away all its secrets.
The Christian influence throughout the story is prevalent and tactful. I so enjoy reading a good book from a Christian author, who heightens the emotion of their plot with scriptures and prayers to God.
There is only one thing I didn't quite "get" with this book. That would be the romantic interest that Darby, quite quickly, falls in love with. Darby is rather surprised herself, I think. Still, it is a sweet romance.
I'm also excited because I just found out that this is only the first book in a trilogy. (Really?! There's more where this came from?!)
