Before her father's death, Kate's entire life could be defined by one thing; the Church of the Holy Divine. After her father, a non believer dies, Kate and her deeply religious mother move to her father's hometown in Maine and it is there that Kate starts to question the authority of her mother's church and what she truly believes in.
It would be very easy for a book to handle the idea of religion in a clumsy way. But Weiheimer takes care to show the many different sides of religion in the United States and shows how very personal it is to each person. This is a very good novel, especially for readers who are interested in faith and self discovery.
