Elaine Connor is a former Minneapolis police officer who has
moved to the neighborhood where she spent her youth after suffering a breakdown
due to the death of her son in a car accident. She is pleasantly surprised
when Reilly Boschardt, the daughter of her ex-boyfriend, shows
up on her doorstep. Reilly is going through the turmoil of her own having been
kicked out of high school weeks before graduation and has nowhere to go as her
mother is selling the house. Although Elaine has no idea how to handle the situation
for Reilly, she takes her in and gets her an internship that will allow her to
complete her degree.
Through the Waves: A
Steady Path by Patrick M. Garry is a book that follows
two people with a difficult life trying to make amends and create
spaces for healing and growth. However, events within their lives continue
to bring back the grief that they are trying to leave behind. As Elaine manages
the security for a leading university in the area, she has to deal with a crime
scene where a professor dies of suicide. Soon after, a bomb blast rips through
the university, and once again, Elaine is pushed back, coming face to face with
her painful past.
Patrick M. Garry merges the stories of two wounded souls in
a skillful manner, creating complex relationships and allowing readers strong
glimpses of their broken hearts. The inner worlds of the characters are
beautifully written and their humanity shines through the story with unusual
brilliance. The characters evoke a sense of resilience, yet they are genuinely
flawed. Through the Waves: A Steady Path
is a great example of the author’s ability to combine sharp commentaries, a
compelling narrative voice, and dazzling prose to create a page-turner that is
emotionally and psychologically rich.
