Thin places. There are sacred moments when the distance between heaven and earth narrows, and anything is possible. Skye arrives at college, determined to leave her past behind. But suddenly she sees the shadowy image of her mother on campus. Eight years ago, Skye's mother abandoned her. What happened all those years ago? Is she even still alive? Reluctantly, Skye seeks help in the counseling clinic, but the psychologist, Alix, has suffered her own tragic loss and resolves not to let the desperate girl drag them both into the past. Lyrical and passionate, THIN PLACES is a story of brokenness and healing. Each grappling with colliding issues of grief and abandonment, each yearning for long-lost connections.
