Women's Fiction | Suspense
In this gorgeously stunning debut, a mysterious child
teaches two strangers how to love and trust again. After the loss of her mother and her own battle with breast
cancer, Joanna Teale returns to her graduate research on
nesting birds in rural Illinois, determined to prove that
her recent hardships have not broken her. She throws herself
into her work from dusk to dawn, until her solitary routine
is disrupted by the appearance of a mysterious child who
shows up at her cabin barefoot and covered in bruises. The girl calls herself Ursa, and she claims to have been
sent from the stars to witness five miracles. With concerns
about the child’s home situation, Jo reluctantly agrees to
let her stay—just until she learns more about Ursa’s past. Jo enlists the help of her reclusive neighbor, Gabriel Nash,
to solve the mystery of the charming child. But the more
time they spend together, the more questions they have. How
does a young girl not only read but understand Shakespeare?
Why do good things keep happening in her presence? And why
aren’t Jo and Gabe checking the missing children’s website
anymore? Though the three have formed an incredible bond, they know
difficult choices must be made. As the summer nears an end
and Ursa gets closer to her fifth miracle, her dangerous
past closes in. When it finally catches up to them, all of
their painful secrets will be forced into the open, and
their fates will be left to the stars.
