Synopsis

A novel of suspense and moving personal stories, From Peril to Light tells the fascinating story of lives changed during a major citywide blackout. A group of strangers, together by chance, battle life threatening dangers together. Their experience profoundly changes and enriches their lives. As the story unfolds, the reader experiences the tension of their experience as well as the unexpected moments of tenderness. More than just about surviving, this story tells how a diverse collection of individuals learned a lot about themselves as well as others. How their experience enhances their lives is as relevant for the reader and our world as it is for the characters in the drama.

The participants in the drama come from different countries and socio-economic status, have different religions, and are ethnically and racially diverse. Central to the plot are identical twins brought to life by the identical twin authors with their unique perspective. The authors’ research provides a richness to all the characters as they are brought to life in this engaging tale which leaves the reader in suspense until the very end.

From Peril to Light is a work of fiction that enthralls and entertains as it demonstrates an answer to what many believe is the most vexing dilemma facing our society today. The authors are motivated by their deep concern about the debilitating divisiveness existing in our country. The reader will discover an answer to curing so much of what divides us and understand what can help bring people together.

This novel is the culmination of a collaboration of coauthors, Jim and Alan, who live 1,300 miles apart. While they are indeed so much alike, they are also mirror image twins. Alan is right-handed and maybe a bit more analytical, operating more in the left side of his brain than Jim who is left-handed, a bit more creative, and operates more in the right side of his brain. These small but important differences surely enhanced the quality of the writing. and fullness of the story.

While the motivation for the novel was to help bring people together, the authors believe the book can help enrich the reader's life and lead to less tension and angst within themselves. In addition to the important message in From Peril to Light, the reader will surely be entertained.
