The Night Lake: A Young Priest Maps the Topography of Grief

Liz Tichenor has taken her newborn son, five weeks old, to the doctor, from a cabin on the shores of Lake Tahoe. She is sent home to her husband and two-year-old daughter with the baby, who is pronounced ''fine'' by an urgent care physician. Six hours later, the baby dies in their bed. Less than a year and a half before, Tichenor''s mother jumped from a building and killed herself after a long struggle with alcoholism. As a very young Episcopal priest, Tichenor has to ''preach the Good News,'' to find faith where there is no hope, but she realises these terrible parts of her own life will join her in the pulpit.
