Darkness Falls: Waiting For the Light is about the struggle to find love in almost unbearable circumstances. The book starts off in France in the year 1853. A young man named Jacque Bourque is undecided as to whether he should become a priest or marry; he talks to his confessor about his quandary. Being a kind and sensitive priest, he tells Jacque that perhaps he should go to the new world and find his calling there. So Jacque chooses to go to Quebec because of the anti-Catholic sentiments in America. After several years he meets and falls in love with a beautiful Indian woman. After several years as a fur trader he moves his family to New York City. He's heard of all the construction and decides it's safe to move there. Ultimately Jacque is shot in central park while trying to save his family. He imparts a message of finding love and holding onto it no matter what the cost; he then dies before his young sons eyes.Going down through the generations, ultimately the novel comes to Christian Taylor. He has heard this message of finding love his whole life. He's tried to find love by becoming a Catholic Priest, yet he has a yearning to be married, so he puts his pursuit of the priesthood on hold. His young life is spent in a lower-middle class family in Queens, NY. Although he has good parents who do there best, Christian feels left out, being the youngest of three. As he grows up, his life is wrought with failure, failure to be a marine, failure to be a priest, and ultimately failure at love. He finally believes he's met a soul mate named Jessica Cartwright, which is where the plot thickens. All unfolds in the end.
