There is no guidebook for grief. But there are companions, including those who have already walked its path.

Lee Carter's memoir of her own journey with grief after her husband's sudden death describes with great candour her journey of shock, loss, fear and change. She provides a glimpse of what it's like to find a way through the wild and unpredictable landscape of grief.

Although every person's experience of loss and grief will be unique, Lee points us all to the God who never forsakes us—our heavenly Father who is able to comfort and sustain us even through the greatest of losses, and who offers the only true hope in the face of death.
