"I was six years old when my sister, Emma Louise Nash, fell down the stairs and broke her neck. She died instantly, according to doctors.
I am twenty-six when she is murdered in her apartment two decades later."
When Clare's sister dies for the second time, her family is convinced they can revive her like they did years ago- through constant, fervent prayer. After a lifetime of trying to forget her sister's unexpected resurrection, Clare wants no part in the aftermath of her murder. But the sudden appearance of a priest who claims to know Emma's secrets suddenly propels her into a new and terrifying reality. Who gained from Emma's murder? And why does her family continue to cling so tightly to the absurd?
The more Clare untangles the life her sister left behind, the more she wonders who orchestrated each of her deaths... and the more she's forced to revisit the dark faith they both tried to leave behind
