A gift of hope

Steel, Danielle
Just months after the death of her beloved son, Danielle Steel found herself venturing out onto the streets with a small team of trusted friends to help the homeless of San Francisco, transforming the pain of loss into a campaign of service that enriched her life beyond anything she could have imagined. For eleven years, they worked under cover of darkness, distributing food, clothing, bedding, tools and toiletries to the city's most vulnerable citizens, seeking no publicity and remaining anonymous throughout. In this unflinchingly honest and deeply moving memoir, the author speaks publicly for the first time about their work among the most desperate members of society, and issues a heartfelt call for more effective action to aid this vast, deprived population.
