The Prayer Box by Lisa Wingate
Tandi Jo Reeses life is pretty much a mess. The most stable people in her life had been her grandparents, but her parents eventually kept them out of her life. She has allowed her children to take care of themselves as she barely can help herself. Until she moves to Hatteras Island, one place with a good childhood memory. She lives in fear of her past and future until the day her she finds her elderly landlord dead and the woman seems to speak to Tandi through letters she had written to God.

This book has as many treasures in it as Iola Anne Poole's letters. A look into the past and it's prejudices. Watching Tandis daughter Zoey follow in her moms footsteps with bad choices. The struggle of falling into old habits when pushed by guilt, and so much more. It had some mystery to it along with the strength of a small community needing to pull together after a disaster. An ebook called The Sea Glass Sisters is the prequel to this story.
