Grief-stricken and alone, Dr. Hendrik Joubert retreats to a remote cabin by a quiet lake-until a fiery streak in the night sky shatters his solitude. From the wreckage of an alien craft, he rescues two extraordinary children, Yari and Yego, and shelters them from the forces hunting them. As bonds form and truths unfold, Hendrik must confront not only their otherworldly origins but his own longing for purpose, love, and redemption.A moving, heart-racing tale of loss, hope, and the unbreakable power of chosen family-set against the stars. Beverley Lilliann Alice Joubert is an eclectic South African storyteller based in the Karoo town of Willowmore. She writes across age groups and genres-whimsical children's picture books and activity titles, Scripture-grounded devotionals, heart-tugging romances, and edge-of-your-seat mysteries and supernatural thrillers. Anchored in faith and a love for everyday miracles, Beverley's books celebrate courage, compassion, and the quiet resilience of ordinary people. Her granddaughter often inspires her children's stories, while her rural surroundings and South African heritage lend texture and authenticity to her adult fiction. When she isn't plotting a new series or polishing a manuscript, she's likely sketching ideas for illustrations, sipping rooibos, or walking under the wide Karoo sky with her husband, Shaun.
