{"product_id":"2940148782117","title":"A Soul for Amicus","description":"Do you believe animals have a soul and that following their physical death their soul is received into heaven? This twofold question is asked more often than not of our Christian clerics. It is a question which seriously befuddles many, amuses some, and irritates and mortifies still others. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFollowing the death of dog handler Marine Corporal David Devonshire while on deployment in Iraq, his canine partner, a German shepherd, Sergeant Amicus, is adopted by the Corporal’s young family. Spurred on by their adopted charge, the Corporal’s widow, Kate Devonshire and son Luke, endeavor to find their own answer to this vexing question.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLife is never the same for Kate and Luke after Amicus joins the Devonshire household. Through this endearing creature, the Corporal’s family experiences a release from the constraints of their sorrow, allowing them to once again embrace God’s promise of new beginnings. This story takes the reader full circle and Amicus serves as a reminder that though God’s creatures may live but in the shadows of our busy lives, they never fail in their own unique way to make an indelible impression. Then, when the time comes for them to leave us, more often than not we are left, better people because of them.","brand":"Xulon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47072776290544,"sku":"2940148782117","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148782117_p0.jpg?v=1763708099","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148782117","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
