When Kim de Blecourt and her husband decided to adopt a child from Ukraine, they knew that the process might be challenging. Nothing, however, could have prepared de Blecourt for the twisted nightmare she would endure. During her year-long struggle to extricate her newly adopted little boy from that post-Soviet country's corrupt social service and judicial systems, de Blecourt was insulted, physically assaulted, and arrested. Worse, her months of loneliness, worry, and fear drove her to the brink of spiritual despair. But God had no intention of abandoning de Blecourt or her family. Her amazing story-culminating in a spine-chilling race to freedom-offers dramatic proof that God's light shines on even in the deepest darkness.
Kim de Blecourt is a broadcast media veteran, experienced writer, and expert on international adoption. She has also worked as a newspaper journalist. Kim heads a ministry called Nourished Hearts to encourage, inspire, and create community around those who are adopting or have adopted and provide foster care and/or work in orphan care internationally. Kim and her husband, Jahn, have been married for thirteen years and are the parents of two children, Jacey (age 10) and their recently adopted son Jake (age 5). Kim has presented the message of this book through a wide variety of media outlets and at a growing number of speaking venues.
