PEOPLE
After six-year old Janie Rose Pike dies in a tragic accident, her family is not the same. Mrs. Pike seldom speaks, while Mr. Pike is forced to come out of his long silence. And ten-year-old Simon is suddenly without a baby sister or an understanding of why she's gone. Those closest to this shattered family must learn to comfort them--and confront their own private shadows of hidden grief. If time cannot draw them out of the dark, then love may be their only hope....

From the Inside Flap
In the small town of Larksville, the Pike family is hopelessly out of step with the daily rhythms of life after the tragic, accidental death of six-year-old Janie Rose. Mrs. Pike seldom speaks, blaming herself, while Mr. Pike is forced to come out of his long, comfortable silence. Then there is ten-year-old Simon, who is suddenly without a baby sister -- and without understanding why she's gone.
Those closest to this shattered family must learn to comfort them -- and confront their own private shadows of hidden grief. If time cannot draw them out of the dark, then love may be their only hope....
