Carolina Twilight Karen Stokes

THIS WORK REPRESENTS the increasing mastery of the novel by Karen Stokes. Her previous half dozen works of fiction have been historical. In CAROLINA TWILIGHT she deals with contemporary times and contemporary problems-the epidemic of teenage depression and suicide. This story of a young woman's journey from the depths of despair to spiritual redemption shows great psychological insight and is an inspiring account of the power of faith.
