Two sisters can't stand to live together, but can't bear to be apart. One worships the flashy world of Nashville; the other is a devout Pentecostal. One falls into the lap of any man; the other is afraid to even date. One gets pregnant in a flash; the other desperately wants a child. At the heart of Silas House's third, masterful novel is the story of Easter and Anneth, left parentless as children, who must raise themselves and each other in their small coal-mining town.
