A Sorrow of the Heart


Book Description

"Wednesday evening, May 10th, 1967, three little boys disappeared from the Southside neighborhood in Hannibal, Missouri, never to be seen or heard from again. They simply disappeared without a clue. They were thought to have been lost in the local network of caves. This compelling story of sadness and sorrow was written by Charles W. Stewart who watched it unfold. This tragic story was compiled over forty years from interviews, news accounts, and eye witness accounts. As the author takes you through the drama, several points that were overlooked at the time are investigated. A number of people had gone missing during this same time period without most of these mysteries ever being solved. Today the investigation might have been done differently. The comparison of the disappearance with the works of Mark Twain were never seriously considered. Charles will examine with you some of the other possibilities as you read this real life mystery that has haunted Hannibal for more than forty years."--P. [4] of cover.

Retreat leader, former psychotherapist, and bestselling author Paula D’Arcy is one of those experts. In Winter of the Heart, she shares her life’s work, accompanying you through seasons of grief and the emotions that come with the loss of a loved one or after other major changes in life. Winter of the Heart is a companion for anyone early in grieving process—for the person experiencing shock, emotional pain, an inability to move, guilt, intense anger, and a range of other emotions that might be new to you. D’Arcy lost her young husband and toddler in a violent car accident more than four decades ago. She understands your grief and can also help you look to what’s on the other side—hope, acceptance, recognition that what you are experiencing is both common and unique, and the essential counsel that you need not ever "get over it." Winter of the Heart is for those who mourn the death of a loved one, but it is also for counselors and pastoral ministers. You’ll find D'Arcy's words relevant for other occasions when mourning can be painful, including the end of a marriage, job loss, and other major life changes.
