Treha Langsam’s life has been anything but ordinary. As the main character in this novel, she struggles with mental and physical disorders, yet she also has the unique ability to communicate with people lost in their own minds. When Devin Hillis, a filmmaker looking to make a documentary, discovers her, he begins investigating her history and her gift.
Theological themes are secondary to the plot. A minor character explores prayer and forgiveness, but the main characters are separated from that. Treha’s gift may be theologically questionable, as she is communicating with people who usually can’t speak or think coherently. The characters are rounded and well-developed, but the plot seems a little unrealistic because what is happening isn’t actually medically possible. Nevertheless, because of its fast paced plot, its crisp dialogue, and its unique main character, the book is entertaining.
