In July of 1980 four Lake Ann Camp summer staffers set out on an exploratory trip to Drummond Island. On July 3, the four of them were caught in a deadly “freak storm” on Lake Huron that meteorologists say only appear once every ten to twelve years. After a harrowing night, Cheryl Steele Tinsley was the only survivor.

Her story is filled with gripping details about how our lives are changed when we are faced with our mortality—how God speaks to us when we encounter the reality of death.

Cheryl has finally put pen to paper. With honesty,  authenticity, and a keen sense of humor about life’s many twists and turns, Tinsley recounts the story of that night and the incredible ways God acted in the lives of everyday people during and after the storm. She shows readers that even in the very heart of our storms, God is with us and loves us profoundly.
