"With immense courage, Kathryn Slattery has walked back into the dark places in her own life, emerging with life-transforming insights...

Reading Lost & Found was like sitting with a cup of tea with an old friend who trusts me enough to share the dark as well as the light-filled places in her life. Thanks to Slattery’s skill with words, I didn’t just read her story, I experienced it with her. I heard her mother’s “tinkly laugh like ice cubes in a tall cool glass of lemonade.” Watched “the crystal stopper on the decanter cast hundreds of tiny glittering rainbows dancing on the ceiling.” Felt the “marshmallow soft mattress” on an old double bed. Best of all, as she discovered new depths of God’s love, so did I. From a bowl of cake batter shattered on the floor, to the difficult final years with her mother, she makes the all-healing discovery that “nothing in life goes to waste."
