Those Left Behind (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798293256846)

"A beautifully woven tale of sorrow and salvation. This book is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always a glimmer of hope." - Inspire Review

Anthony Marlowe was never much of a gambler, but when he found that dirty twenty-dollar bill in the parking lot of a convenience store, he figured he had nothing to lose. As he sat in his car outside his small, two-bedroom home, he scratched the ticket that would earn him the largest lottery payout in Massachusetts history. The problem? His wife was dying in their bedroom fifty feet away.

Fast forward five years, and Anthony is constantly haunted by his wife's ghost. Weekly payouts, prescribed medication, and insurmountable guilt have led him down a path of binge drinking, drug abuse, and self-destructive behavior. His oldest son, Chris, who has had to raise himself as well as his little brother in their father's absence, finally calls Anthony out on his lifestyle, forcing him to realize he has to make a change. By chance, Anthony meets Kylie, a grief support counselor who runs a weekly group for people suffering loss in one way or another. With her friendship and the support of his new friends, Anthony feels that maybe there's some hope after all.
