Gary and Susan Hazen--high school sweethearts married for many
years, born and bred in the Adirondack community of Lost Lake--live
a simple and honest life and have instilled values in their two
grown sons by example. But despite their efforts, Gary senses that
his sons are starting to pull away and can't help but feel he is at
fault. His younger son, Kevin, has ambitions that extend far beyond
the snowy edges of their small town. And his elder, Gary David, so
fears disappointing his father that he is keeping an important part
of his life secret.
"The Grace That Keeps This World "is a story about family,
community, and the shared values that underlie and sustain human
relationships. And ultimately, it is a tale of profound loss, human
fallibility, and the love--romantic, neighborly, or familial--that
can sometimes blur our line of vision.
