Description
Fifteen-year-old Miriam Horton spends each summer traveling the South with her family as her father, a celebrated Baptist preacher and faith healer, leads revival services for crowds seeking miracles. But after a disturbing incident challenges Miriam’s trust in her father and the beliefs that have shaped her life, she begins to question the boundaries of faith, family, and truth. When Miriam discovers a gift for healing of her own—one her church insists women cannot possess—she must navigate a dangerous conflict between obedience and self-discovery. Set within a Black Southern Evangelical community, this haunting coming-of-age novel explores spiritual awakening, disillusionment, gender, and the complicated costs of belonging.
