from the direction of the cabin, followed by a gunshot,
then an eerie silence..."

From the novel based on a true story, ALONE YET NOT ALONE,
by Tracy Leininger Craven

A miraculous survival. An extraordinary faith. Autumn 1755. Settled in the Blue Mountains of Pennsylvania, deep within America s new frontier, the Leininger family, immigrated from Germany, celebrates the blessings of a beautiful homestead and bountiful harvest and the freedom to work  their own land. Until tragedy strikes with the beginning of the French-Indian War, and the devastating raid known as the Penn s Creek Massacre. The lives of this simple, God-fearing family are forever altered when Barbara and Regina, two young sisters, are carried away by a band of Allegheny warriors. Driven by their faith in God and the powerful bonds of family, Barbara and Regina hold firmly to the belief that they are never alone, even in their darkest hour, and that they will be reunited again.                                                                                                                                - publisher
