There, at the Light of the Sea, five radical feminist nuns have their own vision of faithful service. When the Archdiocese of Chicago runs out of money to keep the convent open, she is torn from her carefully constructed life and sent to a progressive convent on a rocky island in the Pacific Northwest. She prays for the hardships of others, the sick and poor, the loved ones she lost, and her own atonement.

Taking the name Sister Angeline, she spends her days and nights in silence, moving from one prayerful hour to the next. When Sister Angeline is unwillingly sent to a radical convent, her tragic past resurfaces and her very being is put to the test.Īfter surviving a tragedy that killed her entire family, sixteen-year-old Meg joins a cloistered convent, believing it is her life’s work to pray full time for the suffering of others.

From the bestselling author of The Night Child.
