In "Coyote" a mother's need to protect her toddler spirals into a dangerous obsession. "Prisoners Do" follows two married doctors who find temporary escape in a discomforting affair. An Israeli woman risks more than she imagines when she attempts to reclaim her captive child from militants in "All the Sons of Cain." "Half-Life" uncovers the devastating secret behind a nanny's chosen profession; in "An Uncontaminated Soul" a haunted and lonely cat lady's impulsive rescue of two more kittens proves to be a heartbreaking turning point; and in the title story, an atheist family from Berkley relocates to the conservative Midwest to confront the consequences and limits of their beliefs.
