This novel, published in 1992, was the author's debut. The main character is Rose Clinton, mysterious woman who comes to St. Elizabeth's, a home for unwed mothers in Habit, Kentucky, pregnant but married, and decides to stay. When her baby is born, Rose makes a place for herself and her daughter amid St. Elizabeth's extended family of nuns and an ever-changing collection of pregnant teenage girls. Her past catches up with her.
