Bénie Soit Sixtine

When she married Pierre-Louis Sue de La Garde, Sixtine had no idea he belonged to a fundamentalist Catholic group—or that her idyll would turn into a nightmare. After he dies under mysterious circumstances, she falls prey to a manipulative stepmother who isolates her from the world and even seems intent on stealing her newborn son. Trapped, there’s only one solution left: escape.

Stopping in a village early one morning, Sixtine rents a room under the name Sophie. She earns the sympathy of Lydie, another single mother who offers her a place to stay, and of the local parish priest, who invites her to lead the choir. Finding refuge in a caring community, the young mother begins a new life. But if she wants to break free from the sect that continues to hunt her, Sixtine must find the courage to confront it.
