"Mat'ta sat in the shadows of the small cave, holding her breath in order to remain as quiet as possible. Just below her, on the desert floor of the Serpent's Valley, the Hunters were sniffing around the last place her feet stood in the dust. She had gotten lucky this time. But, her margin of escape was narrowing. If she did not find her way back to Papa soon, she would become their prey. It had never been her intent to become a prodigal; one decision, one choice after another had led to this circumstance. Now, that she was so far away, finding her way back had proven to be more difficult than simply choosing to run home..." If you have ever spent time in a Spiritual Wilderness, struggled through long seasons of 'the dark night of the soul' then you too, may find your own story intertwined within the pages of this book. Written as an allegory, Mat'ta discovers an intricate journey whose detours bring her healing one experience at a time. Finally, the peace which has eluded her for so many years, is once again restored.
