Twenty-five years after his wife Pearl's passing, long-time recluse Andrew must finally confront the grief that has kept him numb and isolated in the rolling foothills of his ranch cabin property. In a moment of fiction meeting reality, Andrew finds himself estranged from the sequestered life he has always known and thus begins a journey to find his Pearl in "Death": a world characterized by mountains, a Valley, fire-watching Elders, a timeless traveling companion, burning houses, and corduroy pants. Like Jesus, and like the mountains in the story, the gentle nudge of When the Mountains Called is to "Come and see" and consider what it really means to live in hope.
