Charles’ search for the right pickup results in a bizarre wager, plunging Charles and the salesman into a faceoff that changes his life—and the life of his family—forever. The Emergence Collection chronicles the life of an ordinary man and his decidedly unusual ’64 Chevy pickup truck. From Out of Nowhere jumps forty years into the past, exploring how Chet came to join Charles and Emily’s family, and the heartbreaking consequences that no one could have possibly foreseen. Whispers From the Past confronts the universal human trials of loss and grief, and the realization that life doesn’t end when we lose everything that’s important to us, even though it feels like it should. Trapped in the agony of his past, Charles has locked the instrument of his loss in an old barn, in a vain attempt to close the most painful chapter of his life. In a heartwarming journey of self discovery, Charles learns to trust, share, and love, allowing strangers to become his friends. In the process, he faces his demons and learns that even the instrument of our wounding can help us heal. Strength Beyond Our Own continues the story of Charles and the Saunders family, exploring the devastation wrought when someone we love chooses the path of selfishness. At fourteen, David Saunders’ father walks out of his life, leaving him to look after his mother and younger sister. Still reeling from his father’s betrayal, a devastating accident snatches away David’s mentor and the guidance he needs to grow into manhood. With nothing but Chet, an old ’64 Chevy pickup that he doesn’t even know how to drive, David and his family must hold things together in the face of the most brutal Idaho winter to come along in the last hundred years. With everything stacked against them, does Chet possess enough magic to bring about one more miracle?
