Then a pause, and his tone changed. "e;Jim, Anna didn't make it. We did all we could. I am so sorry. She just had too much stress on her frail body the past few months and we couldn't stop the bleeding fast enough."e;Already well acquainted with heartache and sorrow, James DeMonte wonders if he can go on after the death of his beloved wife. Completely devoted to his infant daughter, he feels he must give up his navy career so they will not be separated, and his future becomes uncertain. Life takes an unexpected turn when he finds himself the recipient of Annas legacy, a legacy he had not known existed.
