Push two families into bitterness, resentment, and guilt? This is an unprecedented account of two traumatized families who describe their ordeal and explore the bond sustaining and uniting them as they deal with their bizarre reversal of life lost and life found. And join Whitney Cerak, the sole surviving student, as she comes to terms with her new identity, forever altered, yet on the brink of new beginnings.

Reading this book was an amazing, and inspiring experience. After the kind of emotional turmoil that the Van Ryn family, and the Cerak family went through, I would probably have been angry and sad that such a mistake could be made. Yet these families handled the situation with such forgiveness and grace. This book has inspired me to be more forgiving, and to trust in God because if it weren't for their strong Christian values, they could not have made it through a tragedy like that.
