In a sedate Canadian town lives collide unexpectedly in a tangle of longing and hallucinations. There is Sandy Whyte, a pillar of the community, whose heart jolts at the sight of a beautiful young boy; Gloria, his cleaner, who claims to have seen the Virgin Mary; and pregnant teenager Annette.

The events of the book and the revelations of character are often dark and twisted, yet there is enough humor to prevent the mood from becoming completely oppressive. This isn't a happily-ever-after story, yet I was left with the impression that these formerly isolated individuals, by acknowledging the things from their pasts that have troubled them even in their dreams, have connected in a way that makes future contentment possible.
I have a fairly low tolerance for strong language and graphic sexual content, and there was much more in this book than I'm comfortable with. If I had known ahead of time about the content, I wouldn't have chosen to read the book. The characters wrestle with complex moral issues and emotions such as guilt, forgiveness, faith, love, and purpose. People with a higher tolerance level for graphic content may find much to contemplate here. ( )
