| Publisher Description: To the people in their counter-culture, pacifist church, Matt and Miranda Baker seem the perfect 1960s couple. However, a few months after the birth of their daughter, Ruthie, Miranda's parents are killed in an automobile accident causing her to sink into a depression that neither she nor Matt fully understands. Their marriage gradually unravels and Miranda returns to her "first love," acting. She withdraws from her Christian community and pursues a career in film and television, but the realities of show business are much less satisfying than she had hoped, and some of the people she meets in Hollywood are not what they seem. Their actions have disastrous consequences for both Miranda and Ruthie that Miranda can only repair by returning to her faith. But her journey "home" is far from simple. |
