A coming of age story with roots in child abuse during the depression era. This book hit me hard as I could relate with the main character so easily. I read it in one sitting because it swept me away. Have tissues handy! ~Pauline Creeden, Book Reviewer

After she suffers a heartbreaking loss, Sarah Jane watches her mother spiral into mental illness. The fourteen-year-old girl must discover a way to rescue her younger brother and herself from a lifetime of pain.

Something she glimpsed long ago, a loving family, is offered by her aunt and uncle, but it will mean the loss of all she holds dear. Yet she must be open to loss to receive the riches of God's grace.

In the midst of the storm, Sarah Jane finds refuge can only be found ... in the shadow of the cedar.
