About Widow’s Walk:
In the small coastal town of Sparrow, Maine, tradition runs deep—and change is rarely welcome
When Reverend Miranda McCurdy becomes the new parish priest at St. Gabriel-by-the Sea, she’s determined to make a difference in her small community. But her eagerness to make the church more progressive stirs up a hornet’s nest with members of the Thanksgiving committee who don’t want to give up their long tradition of dressing like “Pilgrims and Indians,” and when a young, pregnant, Honduran woman seeks sanctuary at St. Gabe’s, the congregation’s response is not what she’d hoped. Juggling the demands of her congregation with her own solitude as a young widow, it’s hard to know if her calling to serve the church was real. When she’s faced with a vote of no confidence, followed by an offer from her former employer to head up a new upscale restaurant in Seattle, she has an easy way out, but can she walk away? A lost dog and a handsome stranger only complicate matters.
