As Wide as the Sky

Synopsis

&“In the vein of Jodi Picoult&’s Nineteen Minutes, As Wide as the Sky explores the human component of tragedy.&” —Mandy Mikulencak, author of Forgiveness Road Five a.m.: Amanda Mallorie wakes to the knowledge that her son Robbie is gone. And a new chapter of her own life must begin. She has spent four years as her son&’s only support, desperately trying to understand the actions that landed him on death row and to change his fate. Now Amanda faces an even more difficult task—finding a way, and a reason, to move forward with her own life.Before the tragedy that unfolded in a South Dakota mall, Robbie was just like other people&’s sons or daughters. Sometimes troubled, but sweet and full of goodness too. That&’s the little boy Amanda remembers as she packs up his childhood treasures and progress reports, and discovers a class ring she&’s never seen before. Who does it belong to and why did Robbie have it in his possession? So begins a journey that will remind her not only of who Robbie used to be, but of a time when she wasn&’t afraid—to talk to strangers, to help those in need, to reach out. Robbie&’s choices can never be unmade, but there may still be time for forgiveness and trust to grow again. For a future as wide as the sky.&“As Wide as the Sky asks what happens next, and dares to suggest that humans aren&’t monsters, and that there&’s a grace in allowing for the possibility of redemption.&” —Salt Lake City Weekly&“A phenomenal read.&” —Davis Bunn, internationally bestselling author
