After chaining her to a filthy bed in a cold basement, Smiley delivers his cruelest blow: He claims to have killed Sam, the friend she's grown to love.Sarah draws comfort from Emilia, her fellow prisoner, and a wolf who haunts her dreams. But as violence and death surround her, Sarah asks how a loving God could allow so much suffering. Not even a miracle convinces her that He cares. Will the chrysalis around Sarah's heart ever shatter or will she be permanently trapped in a prison of her own making?
