Empty Shells and Broken Stones
Lisa Gaines
- When
- Faith
- Morgan’s
- baby
- is
- murdered,
- Faith
- loses
- touch
- with
- reality.
- Grief
- and
- depression
- spin
- her
- into
- an
- ever-widening
- black
- hole
- from
- which
- the
- only
- escape
- is
- her
- own
- destruction.
- Rescued
- by
- a
- friend
- who
- sends
- Faith
- to
- a
- sanctuary
- on
- the
- west
- coast,
- she
- finally
- finds
- a
- path
- back
- to
- the
- world
- of
- the
- living,
- a
- path
- that
- is
- violently
- torn
- asunder
- by
- a
- sudden
- winter
- storm
- and
- a
- baby’s
- fearful cry.
