Godshot by Chelsea Bieker

In this gritty and slightly surreal tale of female determination, 14-year-old Lacy May’s alcoholic mother is exiled from the church and runs away with a stranger. The congregation and Lacy May believe that Pastor Vern’s guidance will bring rain to their town plagued by drought. Instead, Lacy May’s obedience produces unwanted results and she enlists the only women she knows outside the church to help her find her mother.
