Candle in the Darkness
Candle in the Darkness

Courageous journey from privilege to abolitionist awakening.

"Candle in the Darkness" may resonate with you if you appreciate historical depth intertwined with personal growth. Through Caroline Fletcher's evolving eyes, the narrative provides an intimate and challenging exploration of a pivotal time in American history. It's a tale that not only reflects a dramatic shift in a nation's conscience but also the transformation of a heart confronted with its own inherent biases. Lynn Austin crafts a story that grips you with its authenticity and inspires with its message of hope and change.

Description

The daughter of a wealthy slave-holding family from Richmond, Virginia, Caroline Fletcher is raised in a culture that believes slavery is God-ordained and biblically acceptable. But upon awakening to the cruelty and injustice it encompasses, Caroline's eyes are opened for the first time to the men and women who have cared tirelessly for her. Her journey of maturity and faith will draw her into the abolitionist movement, where she is confronted with the risks and sacrifices her beliefs entail.
