Synopsis

In My Sister Dilly, Christy Award nominee Maureen Lang explores the anguish of hurting hearts and the power of God's sustaining grace. Had Hannah only known the toll of a daughter's constant cerebral palsy care on her sister Dilly, maybe she could have prevented the shocking acts that sent Dilly to prison. But Hannah's here now to take Dilly home and shield her from the hatred of unforgiving hearts. "A sincere voice, offering a strong story with likable characters."-Library Journal
