It's the phone call that every parent dreads. When the ringing awakened Jackie Carpenter on that black Georgia night, she found everything she had ever known or believed or trusted ripped from her. Jackie's gentle son Jason was in jail, accused of murder, and Jason's wife and six year old son were shaken and helpless. What began as a nightmare grew into an ordeal. The story caught fire, grabbed headlines, and polarized a community. As she spiraled deeper into night, Jackie found herself adrift. Jason sat, terrified, in jail. Jackie began to fight with the ferociousness of a mama tiger, to save her sanity, her family, and hold on to her faith. What Jackie found in the darkness was a treasure that now empowers her. For though she was lost, she was never alone. And her message is now one of hope, and of the eternal light that cuts through the darkest night.
