From platinum-selling singer Mark Schultz comes a novel inspired by his award-winning hit song “Letters from Home,” about a mother’s unwavering hope and steadfast prayers for her son to return from war.

When Beth Thompson’s only son, James, goes missing in action in Afghanistan, she is left with her prayers, hopes, fears...and letters.

Mother and son have been writing since boot camp. James writes of his struggle to become a confident soldier and of his concern for his young wife and their unborn child. Beth, like any mom, praises her son’s courage even as she frets for his safety.

Even after James disappears, Beth is comforted by a daily ritual of writing him about her feelings, faith, and attempts to maintain a normal life when nothing is really normal but the waiting.

Based on platinum-selling singer Mark Schultz’s hit song “Letters from War,” this emotionally powerful and timely story reveals how faith sustains in even the darkest of circumstances.

"The first time I heard Mark Schultz's song, 'Letters from War, ' I was speechless.

Thanks, Mark, for reminding us all of the cost of liberty."--Dave Ramsey, host of The Dave Ramsey Show, bestselling author of The Total Money Makeover
"The first time I met Mark Schultz I heard him sing in Estes Park. He closed out his set with 'Letters from War' accompanied by a very moving music video. I wept when I listened and watched the story unfold. What makes Mark special is that he is an advocate through song and story for the forgotten people of this world. He causes us to see our story in theirs, uniting through brokenness and hope. "Letters from War" is a must read."--Sandi Patty, Women of Faith speaker, most awarded female vocalist in Christian music history
