Irene does not want to uproot her family and has deep misgivings. They are just settling into their life in Oregon's high desert when 15-year-old Shep is shot and killed during an apparent robbery in their home. The murderer is caught and sentenced to death.

Ultimately, faced with a growing sense that Robbin's death will not stop her pain, Irene takes the extraordinary and clandestine step of reaching out to her son's killer, and the two forge an unlikely connection.--From publisher description. 650 0 $a Teenagers $x Fiction. $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Loss (Psychology) $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Forgiveness $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Prisoners $x Fiction. $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Death row inmates $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Oregon $x Fiction. 650 0 $a Psychological fiction. 941 $a 3 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924012803.0 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20180719040648.0 952 $l RCPA397 $d 20121022144849.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=37AFA63A56A511E0B94CBBDD6AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b NOGInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
