Award-winning author Jennifer Haigh follows her critically acclaimed novels Mrs. Kimble and The Condition with a captivating, vividly rendered portrait of fraying family ties, and the trials of belief and devotion, in Faith. This is a very powerful story. The characters are deeply layered, I found myself clinging to their story. It is a story of how lifes are intertwined and of ripple effects. The drama and mystery are believable. It leaves you wondering what part faith plays in your life - faith in family, faith in yourself, and spiritual faith.
