In 1970, three young nuns at the same Minneapolis convent each face a crisis of faith and calling. Kathleen, Joanna, and Angelina each choose to leave — and follow entirely different paths into the secular world. Debbie Macomber's warm standalone traces their lives across decades, tracking the unexpected ways they flourish outside the convent and the faith they carry with them into their new lives.
