Klappentext

Aaron Sturvant sees another side to the beloved deacon who acts as his father. Attacked at home and shunned at church, Aaron finds refuge with a gracious classmate who shows him how welcoming faith and family can be. But this new friend has a secret of her own, and her world is at odds with Aaron's in more ways than one. Aaron must distinguish believers from beliefs and faith from folly if he is to ever find hope in the darkness. This short novel unflinchingly explores questions of religion, hypocrisy, and family. It is the first in a trilogy that chronicles a young man's battle with both domestic and spiritual trauma, and the answers he finds through these trials.
