Before I Wake - Robert Wiersema
This is an astonishing story of loss, redemption and forgiveness. In the instant that three-year-old Sherry Barrett becomes a hit-and-run casualty on a Victoria street, everything -- the family, the future, the belief in life as ordered and meaningful -- is shattered. When miracles start happening around Sherry, the author makes his fantastic premise plausable by anchoring it solidly in the ordinary.
