Description
A mother and her two teenage daughters escape a cult and start anew. They flee their husband in search of freedom, but the reasons behind their flight are unclear to them. After a car crash in rural Oklahoma, they meet Bradley, a farmer who has known loss and uncertainty. Initially wary of this new family, Bradley's tolerance eventually wins out, and the four form an unlikely bond. The story is told through achingly beautiful prose, exploring themes of belief, redemption, and the dark heart of extreme faith. This novel marks a literary debut that promises to be a mesmerizing read for those interested in stories about the human condition.
