When young Kindi seeks help from the Preacher, the unanswered questions get darker with more unexpected crises. Each person plays a role they don't even understand. Each one interconnected with the other, never fully knowing their own impact. Abuse, scandal, and death create a web of confusion where nothing seems to make sense. Local tragedy causes one kind of pain. Town talk causes another. The people of Greverton discover how even the most insignificant details matter in the larger plan of cosmic justice. When they demand answers to life's hard and thorny questions they uncover more than they ever really wanted to know about why things happen.
