A Light in the City: The extraordinary story of an enigmatic, Good Samaritan

by Eva Hillman

Overview

We had been told of too many tales of modern-day heroes who come in various forms, colors and sizes, and most of them tend to help people discreetly, without asking for anything in return. There are some, however, who are just driven to a life of altruism even without having any knowledge of their past. A Light in the City, a story of an altruist who's completely clueless about his previous existence is propelled by a mysterious, unknown force, to defy his ignorance of his past and help others in dire need of support and direction in life. The many clouds of mystery make for a unifying theme from the beginning until the last episode. Readers will encounter and be absorbed by questions like: Why did he wake up in a hospital bed? Where did his money come from? Why was he able to discharge himself from the hospital without any trouble? But most likely, what stands out most is why was he suddenly driven to help other people considering he doesn't have the slightest idea of his history? A healthy mix of riddles, acts of philanthropy, thrilling episodes of dangerous encounters with shady characters—who later became exemplary individuals—and the transformations of peoples' lives collectively, make A Light In The City worthwhile for readers of all ages.

About the Author

Many times in my life I have thought about writing a book, but I was too busy with life; raising kids, being a wife, mother, daughter with very little time for anything else. I took several kids into my home to help them. One time I took in three little boys from two years to six years whose mother had passed away, but they needed someone, as their dad worked. Another time there were two boys that had run away from home and were trying to live in a car at a local mechanic's shop. Late in life, I was told I have a heart disease and would have to take it easy. That was difficult as I had aways been busy; but one day I sat down at my computer and started writing A Light In The City. It must have been how I felt about people. Wanting to help them. I just wrote. No question about what it was going to be--I just wrote.
