The Northridge Wheelers: First Book in the Wheeler Series - Paperback

by D. Earl Gregg (Author)

In the heart of 1920s Northridge, a small town where neighbors gather on porches and children play freely in the streets, the Wheeler family is carving out a simple but joyful life. With hard work, laughter and deep-rooted friendships, they weather the early days of the Great Depression, relying on each other and the kindness of their tight-knit community. But their world shatters when tragedy strikes---the sudden and unexplained death of their only baby daughter. At a time when medical science has no answers for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), the Wheelers are left with only questions, grief, and a crisis of their faith. This deeply moving historical novel follows the family's journey through unbearable sorrow, spiritual doubt and ultimately, healing. With vivid characters and heartfelt moments, The Northridge Wheelers invites readers into a bygone era---where love and loss live side-by-side, and where even the deepest wounds can be touched by grace. If you've ever wondered how ordinary people find extraordinary strength in the face of unthinkable loss, this story will stay with you long after the final page.
