The Eternity Ring

In everyone's life there is a yearning desire to be connected. Lila Jenson's first recollection was as an only child with her parents, itinerant missionaries on the Steppes of Outer Mongolia. But a war comes, and the family must flee south and eventually across the ocean to the Philippines where Lila is left in the company of another missionary couple. Her parents perish on the way back to their mission field. She is nourished by her missionary friends to grow through her teen years as the war invades Luzon. Her life becomes a sequence of locations and an inquisitive polyglot teenager with a precocious personality and a voracious mind begins to question the foundations of her faith. Priviledged to explore the vaults and ancient libraries of Geneva, she has many questions. But a startling event brings her face to face with C.S. Lewis at his home in Oxford. Her whole personal perspective matures in the company of remarkable young talents who are working for an elite organization to repatriate the exceptional art works that were stolen by the Nazi's during the war. Passing through a series of relationships seeking her own identity and history, she suddenly sees a special man in uniform and her life changes. Continuing on her journey through a remarkable chronology of events, a maturing relationship brings her to Seattle where a stunning event unfolds her life and her legacy in a precious discovery which will help all to reassess their priorities. The events of this story are true and relevant to the middle of the 20th Century as personalities parade by in the chronology that everyone recognizes who lived through these years. One can celebrate each day when a proper personal relationship is discovered and applied.
