In this unusual account of Kate Elliot’s experience as a victim of a manipulative church leader, Kate arrives home in Twin River’s Junction after a long absence. As phantoms from long ago emerge, she must return to the place where it all began. Will Kate be able to face her tormented past and find the answers she’s looking for along with the courage to forgive?
