Historia
Missouri, 1955. Loretta Davenport has led an isolated life as a young mother and a wife to Pete, an ambitious assistant professor at a Bible college. They’re the picture of domestic tranquility—until a local girl is murdered and Loretta begins receiving messages from beyond. Pete dismisses them as delusions of a fevered female imagination. Loretta knows they’re real—and frightening.

I will think of this book fondly for a long time
Revisado: 01-09-25
This book was such a refreshing change of pace from the last few books that I’ve read. This time the plot wasn’t driven by the bad choices the female protagonist makes. Loretta was smart, capable, and realistic. The author wrote her as an example of a woman of her time, without making her simple or outdated. Her frustration was valid, and it made her feelings of helplessness and confinement in the life she was stuck in all the more painful. You want the best for her, you celebrate her wins and are saddened by the outside forces that push her down. I love the paranormal aspect of the book, but honestly, I forgot about it at times as I just wanted to root for Loretta. I love Loretta and I think she’ll be a favorite main character for me for a long time.
