A true story of romance, love, and suspense Karin's Story chronicles the life of Karin Beck-Beggs, a Danish woman who was born in the middle of World War II and raised by a single, alcoholic mother after the death of her father. She was just three years old when he died. It tells of the economic difficulties she experienced as a child and how she was abused by those closest to her when they should have protected her. In this memoir, Beck-Beggs shares how she became pregnant at seventeen and a half and married the young father, an irresponsible alcoholic. The marriage didn't last long. Raised in a society and environment which was a spiritual vacuum, she came to a place of despair, emptiness, and hopelessness. One day she was so desperate, she cried out to a God she was taught didn't exist. And he answered her prayers shortly thereafter through miraculous circumstances. A young, Christian, American airman came into her life in an unusual way. Karin's Story narrates how she accepted Christ as her savior at age twenty-two and experienced many miracles over the course of her life. She didn't realize that another walk through the wilderness was waiting for her.

Loss, like love, deepens with living. Defining loss travels beyond grief. It is more than saying goodbye, surviving destruction, or facing deprivation. Loss means letting go, moving on, and finding the light again. Lost items, lost people, lost minds. In them, there's a silent hope. With loss comes pain, but with pain comes finding the good-the happiness-in renewing one's life and redeeming the irredeemable. On Loss is a genre-crossing collection of short stories, poetry, and flash fiction. Each piece, though vastly different, is "On Loss." Narratives, tragedies, and tales from space travel, time travel and a crime-fighting superhero to war veterans, insanity, and a drive-thru cemetery splash across the pages. Whether losing a loved one, memories, innocence, or the mind, each one follows a different path of loss and its aftermath. Every story unique, each touched with inflection and speckled with despair. Follow the authors of On Loss through the pain and impossibility to lessons learned, forgiveness, and the hope of a better tomorrow.
