The New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love and A Voice in
the Wind pens a captivating tale of suffering, seeking, and redemption
set in Appalachia in the 1850s. In the misty peaks and valleys of
Appalachia roams the sin eater—a myth as much as a man, burdened
with absolving the sins of villagers passing from this life to the
next. But when a young girl uncovers the dark secret behind the
tradition, she vows to show her village the truth. All that matters
for young Cadi Forbes is finding the one man who can set her free from
the sin that plagues her, the sin that has stolen her mother’s love
from her and made Cadi wish she could flee life and its terrible
injustice. But Cadi doesn’t know that the sin eater is seeking as
well. Before their journeys are over, Cadi and the sin eater must face
themselves, each other, and the One who will demand everything from
them in exchange for the answers they seek. “This unforgettable
novel is rich in style, lore, and action, revealing a profound truth
in a way only Francine Rivers can do. Transcending age, gender, and
reading genres, this gripping story is a must-read for men, women, and
young people alike.” —Romantic Times “Rivers delivers both a
powerful message about Christian beliefs and the need for forgiveness
of sins and an evocative portrayal of life in the 1850s. Highly
recommended.” —Library Journal Also available in The Francine
Rivers Historical Collection (e-book only).
