"The first time I saw the sin eater was the night Granny Forbes was carried to her grave."Cadi Fobes knows it's forbidden, that it will bring curses down on her. But something deep and instinctive moves her to look upon the sin eater anyway. And now the thought of finding him again consumes her.
According to custom, only the sin eater can set her free from the sin that plagues her days and nights, the sin that has stolen her mother's love from her....Must she carry her guilt forever? Or is there Another who will atone for her?
A skillful blend of realistic characters, historical accuracy, and compelling mystery, The Last Sin Eater is a story that will capture the heart and spirit.
My Thoughts:
The above about the skillful blend is so true. This book really showed me that some people live the way they live because they might not know any different. This small village was so far form the rest of the world that the children didn't know any better. Until the Man of God shows up and Cadi believes what the man says. She's scared but with the help of a friend and God she changes the town. It's a great story.
