A gripping and thought provoking story.

Have to admit, this book kept me reading. I wanted to find out what was going to happen, where this story was going. Have some kleenex for the end; you might have a few tears!
This story takes place in a small town in Indiana. The kind of town where people know each other, care about each other. A young high school graduate sees something that sets her off on a path that eventually involves her mentor, Wade Rollins. Why did she go down this path? Who hurt her? How can Wade undo everything that led to that fateful night? He is on a "warpath" to avenge her death. A story of faith, love, revenge and what actually is right and what is wrong. This would be a good book for a bookclub who likes to discuss right and wrong, good and evil, faith. You'd get a good discussion going.
