Description
Raised as an only
child, Caia Paine once believed she had everything she would ever need to live
a rich and contented life. The last thing she ever expected was that she would
wake up one morning, despairing, and so full of loathing that even the sky is
darkened by the potency of her anger. After her only son, Jack, is taken from
her in a tragic accident, Caia finds herself obsessed with the man she holds
responsible for Jack’s death, pursuing him all the way to Jerez, Spain. There
she embarks upon a journey that will lead her to suspect her own moral
boundaries. It is a dangerous game that will forever change Caia and make her
question the nature of her paradise lost.
Redemption Song is a compact, potent work of fiction in which nothing is
entirely what it seems and answers are elusive. Surprising, revealing, and
telling, it is the work of a rare storyteller.

Redemption Song
by Tanya Anne Crosby
From the depths of this emotional well is a profound journey of healing.
We follow Caia Paine through a complete arc of pain hoping she’ll be okay when she comes out the other side. This is so beautifully written as Crosby weaves the backstory in at just the right moments to give clarity to the present emotional crisis. Crosby tackles the heavy theme of grief and the ultimate forgiveness with wisdom and grace. It unapologetically is hauntingly beautiful!
In Caia’s story, she loses everything that grounds her in her life. After her teenage son is accidentally killed, her husband leaves her in a mental care facility then files for divorce. When she is released the thought that keeps her going is confronting the man who killed her son.
She follows him to Spain with hatred fueling her daily steps. How can he still be alive when her son is gone? When she finds him, she expected him to be pompous and evading justice, only to find him broken. Almost as broken as she is. Redemption can be found in many ways and this story shares a few paths that can help heal wounds that are so deeply cut it is a wonder if they’ll ever heal.
Caia’s journey is remarkable. As a society we shun grief, it is “allowed” only for so long and tragic if it becomes all-consuming. Caia’s grief is looked down upon as the reader questions her mental stability. However, the raw emotion portrayed by her character gives so much insight into a truly troubled mind. It gives an insight into the rawness of terrible grief. It opens the reader’s heart in unexpected ways and lays unadulterated emotion at their feet.
Crosby expertly crafts this story so you will empathetically feel it all; love, sadness, anger, despair, then hope. The title says it all, Redemption Song.
