Adrienne Dabney turns a small town upside down when she locks herself up in her house for several weeks without food or light. She emerges three weeks later, claiming to have seen a vision of Jesus.

Charity Pittman, a preacher's daughter, believes in the miracle, even though her father denounces Adrienne and her miracle. Charity learns much about life and herself as she observes the difference between saying you have faith and living like you do.

Though-provoking. ( )

Rather unusual but very quick reading story about a girl who thinks her life has been changed by the return to her small town of a native who has gone out into the world to make a name for herself as an artist. ( )
