"The Taker" from Christian Faith Publishing, author Noel Barrette, is a poignant and intense journey that explores the complexities of the mind and power of the human spirit of two young boys through adolescence into adulthood.
MEADVILLE, Pa., April 10, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "The Taker": is a captivating narrative of abuse and the unconditional bond between two boys. "The Taker" is the creation of published author Noel Barrette, a writer who was raised outside of Boston, Massachusetts. She hopes that this published book of hers will encourage those who read it to never be afraid of speaking up for themselves or others.
Barrette shares, "A great evil is failing to act when action is most needed. When Zac Jennings meets another boy, Cole Martinez, playing by the roadside, their young lives will never be the same. Shy, broken, and abused, Cole becomes fast friends with Zac, the boy who seems to have it all. As their respective worlds collide, it comes with complex challenges neither of them could ever anticipate. As Cole is just simply trying to endure life in the shadows, Zac is under the constant strain of keeping his new friend's profoundly dark secrets. On a fateful spring night, Zac reluctantly tells his friend in their hiding place among the trees that he is moving, and Cole's world becomes even more shattered and closed. But at least now, someone else knows about the unyielding cruelty he endures on a daily basis—and he is armed with innovative ways to cope with his abuser's maltreatment, thanks in part to Zac. As the boys grow into young men, their lives are forever changed by their unconditional bond. For Zac, it symbolizes his greatest fear and ultimate transformation from the suffering of another. But for Cole, it is his only light. And as he's being led down an even deeper and darker rabbit hole by his diabolical abuser, his spirit must persevere to survive."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Noel Barrette's new book is an inspiring reminder that even in the darkest times one must always have hope and to try to help others when it is most needed.
