The winter of 1896 in the Yukon was very cold and windy. The winters were especially hard on the birds and animals. Settlers who moved to the Yukon struggled to survive. They provided shelter for their families by constructing small farmhouses. The wild life and settlers seldom crossed paths but that would all change. A severe snow storm altered the quiet existence of a family of geese, a tiny moose and a family of settlers. The result ended in a daring rescue and an everlasting friendship between them and a young girl at Christmas.

Zak was a normal raven until a vacation to Prince William Sound changed his life forever. Caught in the aftermath of the greatest oil spill in Alaska's history, Zak's inner light was nearly smothered as he faced the enormity of the disaster. Unable to reconcile the overwhelming emotions wrought by witnessing the devastation on millions of birds, animals and people, Zak ceased to do little more than exist until meeting the white raven from the heart of Denali. Paired beautifully with the commanding splendor of Alaska and its people, Raven's Light is the tale of Zak's struggle. Set amongst the beauty and people of Alaska's Matanuska Valley, Raven's Light is an intimate glimpse at the journey within that leads to the ultimate serenity of inner peace.
