Maddie Brees has been given bad news: She is seriously ill. But shealso has an old friend, an ex-boyfriend who might be able to healher. Shewas witness to Vincent Elander s so-called miracles in the past. Butthatwas a long time ago, a memory that she would rather stay buried.
Now she is happily married to Frank and mother oftheir three young boys.The religion of her past is behind her, along with anyconfidence she oncehad in it. With the onset of her cancer, the memories ofVincent won tleave Maddie alone, and before long they are affecting everythingelse: her marriage, her husband, the things they thought they agreed on, thebeliefs they thought they shared. Soon Frank, who was to be Maddie srockthroughout her treatment, is finding fault-lines of his own.
