Thirteen-year-old Nic Delano has a lot of questions. Like why does he have a babysitter at his age - and where did she get such long legs? Why do his parents live in separate towns? But mostly, what exactly is the meaning of life?
His mother, Lucy, an astrophysicist and atheist, has always encouraged Nic to ask questions. But lately she doesn't like the answers her son is getting. Nic (named after Nicolas Copernicus) has been hanging around a group of devout Christians and is starting to embrace the Bible - and a very different view of the heavens. He even volunteers their home to shelter the local reverend, a Nigerian named Dele Ombatu, who considers Jesus his best friend and Lucy his greatest challenge.
When an unexpected tragedy strikes, however, Nic and Lucy's beliefs are truly put to the test as they discover they need each other now more than ever. But will a mother and her son be able to find a common ground where faith meets understanding and love is ultimately what endures?
