Faith is anything but normal, but normal is what she wants to be. Awaiting a heart transplant, she is home-schooled and surrounded by family that knows the business of dying all too well. They operate the funeral parlor below their home. When a neighbor dies his heart is given to Faith. After recovery she is plopped into the life she always wanted. But will school and a romance with her donor's cousin be too much?
This novel is written in prose and can be read quickly. But it is deceptively simple - there is a real depth of sadness and hope. It's the kind of book that you think about long after you've finished reading.
