The Emerald Pearl Pen

Kimberly Havens stands on the bridge above a raging river preparing to put an end to her painful existence. This gifted, sensitive adolescent girl has been driven to the brink by the callous behaviors of her drug-abusing mother and the toxic attitudes of a few others in her life. Her journey through the valley of despair is not without encouragers, including her loving grandmother and a caring Christian peer. Are they enough to balance the scale she's using to weigh the value of life against the relief of death? Just as she grasps the handrail and readies herself to plunge into churning currents of the river, something dramatic happens. The Emerald Pearl Pen is based on a true story.
