This beautifully told narrative of a church pastor who became a state chaplain in high-security prisons for men knits together the stories of inmates with those of her own. Chronicling events during her thirteen-year stint, Nancy Sehested describes how she bore witness to misery and miracles within an oftentimes inhuman system.
