      Adri and Sam had a strong marriage. With only occasional disagreements, their solid foundation of love, trust, and the belief in each other's dreams held them together. Then, just days after the couple return from an epic vacation, police officer Sam dies in a freak accident in the line of duty. Adri knew the dangers of her husband's job, but she'd always thought the chances of death were low. From dealing with strangers' thoughtless and insensitive remarks to trying to accommodate her in-laws and extended family, Adri barely makes it through the funeral. Thus begins her first year of struggling with all the emotions of losing her husband. From contemplating various religions to giving meaning to every coincidence, Adri desperately tries to find a purpose in his death. VERDICT Based on her own experience, blogger and entrepreneur Pope's first novel is a candid view of the heartbreaking journey of losing a loved one. It conveys the emotional maelstrom death leaves behind, giving hope for eventual acceptance through Adri's poignant and sometimes humorous musings.--Joy Gunn, Paseo Verde Lib., Henderson, NV
