But no one knows what to think of Adrienne when she claims she's seen Jesus.
Adrienne's vision splits the God-fearing community between believers and nonbelievers, and Charity is stuck in the middle, questioning her father, her religion—and herself.
This small town is praying for a miracle, but heading for disaster.

A Face in Every Window
Life spins out of control in an instant.
JP's once safe and secure world quickly unravels with the death of his beloved grandmother. Grandma Mary had always been the guiding hand of the O'Brien family, lovingly raising his mentally challenged Pap and allowing Mam to remain free of adult responsibility.
Without Grandma Mary, nothing goes smoothly. Things only get worse when Mam wins a farmhouse in an essay contest and insists on sharing her good fortune with the neighborhood outcasts. As JP sees both Pap and himself being replaced in mother's life, his anger takes over.
National Book Award-winning author Han Nolan skillfully draws readers into JP's life and challenges them to experience both his loneliness and his strength as he struggles to learn what it means to forgive.
