OrangeReviewStarAlicen McCaffrey's world is turned upside down following the drowning death of her six-year-old daughter. When her marriage fails, although it was not much of a relationship in the first place, her friend Louise convinces her to go to Red Lodge, MT, where they've spent summers together. There Alicen begins to have visions of small children and worries that she is beginning to have hallucinations similar to those experienced by her Grandma Jo, who claimed to have angels ministering to her. But Red Lodge harbors many secrets, one of which could be fatal to Alicen. Christy Award winner Dekker (The Seer Collection) has written a compelling, mystical story of a woman who has everything and loses it all, only to gain something much more. Like her father, novelist Ted Dekker, the author plumbs the depths of faith and the human psyche in her many layered novels.
VERDICT Suggest to fans of women's fiction, Ted Dekker, and readers who enjoy stories that make them think.
