SummaryKaren Sommerfield has been hiding from the big questions of
her lifethe emotional distance in her marriage, her
inability to have children, and her bout with cancer.
Getting lost in her high powered career provides the sense
of purpose she yearns for. Until the day she's downsized out
of her job and the doctor tells her the cancer may be back.
It's a double blow that would send anyone reeling. It also
sends Karen to Grandma Rose's old farm, where her sister has
made a seemingly perfect life. Opening herself to the
unexpected, Karen finds a lonely child in need of nurturing
and insights into her family's past. And in the quiet of the
Missouri Ozarks, she begins to discover the joy to make her
life complete.
