Publisher's Synopsis
Murder. Could there be a more chilling word? When Liz Peterson's elderly mother is found viciously beaten to death in her home, Liz and her husband, Charles, along with their grown son, John, and teenage daughter, Sarah, struggle to make sense of a senseless act. And then a second blow-more devastating, if possible, than the first-rocks them to their core. John is arrested for his grandmother's murder, as his ever-growing dependence on prescription medicines comes to light. As what's left of the Peterson family begins to crumble under the weight of loss and accusation, the Petersons' longstanding Christian faith is put to the test in a way they could never have imagined, and unconditional love is stretched to its limits. Can God's grace reach even to the deepest agony of the soul and bring healing to a family torn apart by a brutal crime?
