Amanda's BFFs encourage her to take a step back, to get away for a while, and to retreat from the memories of betrayal in the marital home while she was taking care of her dying mother.
She goes into the Jemez Mountains where she meets a wolf, a bear, a hawk, and a swarm of bees that lead her to the answers she needs in this magical realism story of recovery after loss.
Let her story inspire you.
