About This Book
Inspired by a true story, this book contains a tightly wounded plot of passion, suspense, and survival. Left Alive shares the story of a single mother who happened upon a second chance at love, only to be assaulted by her new boyfriend. There was a lot to like about Elizabeth's new interest. He was charming, doting, conversational, and kind, but then, there was also a lot to learn.
One week into their relationship, after a seemingly mild spat, Elizabeth's "perfect" man shot her in the head in cold blood. Felled by hot bullets, Elizabeth lay comatose. But against all odds, time would unravel one of the greatest miracles of survival wrought by the mercy of God. Elizabeth's story is a cautionary and necessary tale about listening to one's instincts and acting on them promptly. While hindsight is twenty-twenty, the mind's eye is an instinctual and God-given phenomenon.
Elizabeth's story is a reminder to all of us to be alert to life's warning signs and to heed them. Left Alive shares Elizabeth's somber and intense story; through it all, one is left haunted and disturbed by the fact that justice is never served. This poignant and cautionary message is both reproving and grim, yet in brief moments of glory, readers witness a testament to faith, family strength, and perseverance, and in that, they find hope for an assured future.
