What would happen if today's chat rooms used a completely different technology, a technology only now available? How might it change the lives of those around you? How might you be changed? This LDS novel takles the lives of four individuals as they struggle with their lonely challenges and ultimately overcome them with the help of each other and the unlikely intervention of a newly implemented technological advance in communications software. By the Light of Dawn will have you alternately laughing, crying, and on the edge of your seat as Stephanie, Jim, Bryce, and Chris attempt to face their biggest deamons alone only to find that they can only conquer with each other's help. The only problem. They live in three different states, have never met, and one of them has a secret that could prove to be the final link to their salvation and they don't even know it.
