Dave Penz dreams of establishing a refuge at Kako, an old gold mine, where the people of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta can rest from the stresses of village life, a place where they'll hear the good news of Jesus Christ. But when his wife dies, his hopes seem shattered. Vera Kelley, a missionary in Fairbanks, has also experienced life-changing tragedy. She's gone on to find great joy in serving Alaska's Native people. She loves them as much as Dave. She is courageous in adversity, knows how to live with hardship, and shares Dave's trust in a God who can do anything. Dave and Vera join forces to make the vision for Kako reality and begin a life of high adventure, hard work, and great faith. This is their story and that of many others who also labor to bring God's good news to some of the most needy Native Americans in the United States.

Joan Rawlins Husby grew up in Washington State's North Cascade Mountains, eager to travel in interesting places and write about the people who lived there. Instead, she became a teacher, then a mom. She raised her two children in Alaska where her first husband, Bob Biggar, built roads and airstrips. After Bob died, she married Hank Husby and moved to Stanwood, WA. Old friend Vera Penz, widow of Dave Penz, became their neighbor and Kako's ambassador. Joan has authored eight YA adventure-mystery books plus a collection of essays called A Logger's Daughter: Growing Up in Washington's Woods. Her historical novel, Heart's Gold, is available on amazon.com. All are set in the Pacific Northwest. The places and people she'd hoped to write about were in her own back yard all the time!
