When Natalie, Mack's wife, convinces herself that she won't be able to support her family on her own, she moves herself and her daughter to White Smoke, Arkansas where she has a new job lined out and the hope of a new beginning. But after being demoted in a mere six months, meeting a less than reputable "best friend," and chasing the same addiction that helped fuel her husband's final breakdown, Natalie ends up spiraling out of control and comes out worse the wear ten years later.
All grown up, her daughter, Wren, struggles with her own addiction and a never ending series of tough situations she blames on her father's early demise. It's not until Mack's mother, Rochelle, can confront her past, her questionable living arrangement with her husband and his mistress, and the bitter hurt that's metastasized inside of her that Natalie and Wren can receive the guidance they both desperately need. But is it too late?
Told through the lives of the three women touched by Mack's struggle, A Violent Hope takes a deeper look into the human heart and the God who repeatedly heals all wounds.
