In this inspirational novel of family, friendship, and forgiveness, a mother of an autistic boy learns to trust God's mysterious ways. Though Sharon Webster's husband, Bill, is still in her life, he is becoming increasingly distant. After their son is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, Bill accepts a promotion that requires lengthy absences from home. But soon Sharon finds new faces entering her and her son's lives. First, a red-headed little girl climbs over the backyard fence to play. Then an elderly couple who live close-by become reliable friends. But after Bill makes a surprise return, their son slips out of the house and is lost in Washington, DC. To find him Sharon must rely on the husband she believes no longer loves her. What she doesn't realize is that her new friends recognize her unspoken hurts and, with God's guidance, are determined to help. Inspired by her childhood foster brother, Kari Rimbey's debut novel explores the disastrous consequences that can befall a family when communication breaks down. It serves as a reminder that God intends for people to reach out to others and that forgiveness is necessary for the heart to heal.
