Cat Caldwell tossed the broken shovel beside her father's grave and stomped the fresh mound of dirt with irreverent fury. "Why God? Why!" She wailed, offering the sole benediction beneath a canopy of trees. At the moment, her muscles ached more than her heart. She'd spent two days digging the rocky soil beside her mother's grave because she had promised her father they would be buried side by side. But for all his absence in her life, he might as well have been buried with her mother nine, almost ten, years ago. ... As a young woman traveling alone, the lively Catherine sets off for Florida, dressed in her father's clothes with the boyish disguise to shield her, but when Raphael "Raff" Jordan becomes her protector, her feelings toward him and her inability to trust him, God, or herself present a far greater concern.

Faces in a Crowd reminds us how much alike we are, even in our differences. These glimpses into human nature, spiritual matters, and our relationships with one another come alive in free verse, prose poems, and traditional poetry forms.
