"My adopted people have a story, a legend, that speaks of a time so dark, the sun will turn his back on the mountains and swallow the moon. It is then that the Sharaw--the Tiger-Man--will come prowling, exacting revenge on the darkness. But there is no great darkness in me or my world. It isn't always comfortable, but it has always been predictable ... until the soldiers came. In the months following the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Imperial Japan devoured entire Asian countries. It wasn't long until the only thing standing between the West and the Land of the Rising Sun was the mountains of Burma-Kailyn Moran's home by birth if not nationality. The daughter of a Baptist missionary and a native Kachin mountain woman, Kai witnesses her land engulfed by unspeakable atrocity, destroying her family and her hope. It is a time of darkness, and she and the other missionaries must choose which path to take--the way of forgiveness and home or the way of the Sharaw"--

"Charlotte Anne Mattas longs to turn back the clock. Before her husband, Sam, went to serve his country in the war, he was the man everyone could rely on-responsible, intelligent, and loving. But the person who's come back to their family farm is very different from the protector Annie remembers. Sam's experience in the Pacific theater has left him broken in ways no one can understand-but that everyone is learning to fear. Tongues start wagging after Sam nearly kills his own brother. Now when he claims to have seen men on the mountain when no one else has seen them, Annie isn't the only one questioning his sanity and her safety. If there were criminals haunting the hills, there should be evidence beyond his claims. Is he really seeing what he says, or is his war-tortured mind conjuring ghosts? Annie desperately wants to believe her husband. But between his irrational choices and his nightmares leaking into the daytime, she's terrified he's going mad. Can she trust God to heal Sam's mental wounds-or will sticking by him mean keeping her marriage at the cost of her own life?"--
