From the sweeping blue waters of the Caribbean to the majestic shores of America, Out of the Depths shares one woman’s amazing journey from orphaned child to enlightened woman.

Born on a Caribbean island to humble parents, Beth Gaston tragically loses her mother in childbirth. Her father, Andre, showers her and her older brother with love and affection, making Beth’s early years a source of delight. But when her father dies in a boating accident, five-year-old Beth is adopted by her Aunt May.

For a time, Beth continues to enjoy a happy childhood until May marries Boze, a freeloading drug addict who inflicts physical and mental abuse on Beth. At Sunday School, she learns more about God and the Bible, leading her to begin a lifelong quest to understand her faith. But as Beth grows older, other questions on racism and discrimination start to beg for answers.

In her late teens, Beth seizes the opportunity to immigrate to the United States, and becomes a nanny in the home of a world-famous doctor. But even in this great land of new beginnings, she still struggles with issues of morality, religion, and prejudice. Beth soon learns, however, that some questions have no answers, and the biggest journey of all takes place within our own hearts.
