Teenage Mara's life is not easy. Living in a small house in the Samaritan village of Sychar, she cares for her younger brother and unstable mother, Nava. An outcast because of her mother's transgressions, Mara worries how they will find their next meal when they will be exiled. One day, Nava meets Jesus at the well, who forgives her sins. But Nava's transformation is cut short when the villagers stone her. To save her mother, Mara sets out to find Jesus, with the help of a young man who also seeks redemption. VERDICT Mara is an unforgettable character, and the writing is sharp. Landsem's fresh interpretation of the familiar biblical story of Jesus and the woman at the well will be well received by fans of T. Davis Bunn. An excellent first outing by a promising writer.
