Description
Written under pseudonym to protect herself and her sources, McCord depicts sharing the love and truth of Christ with women living in Afghanistan. These stories are honest and true, and the harsh reality of their lives is not sugar-coated. McCord shows how people who don't know Christ come to see Him, His truth and His beauty. They reveal the splendor of Christ, the desire of human hearts, and that precious instance where the two meet.
