To honor her beloved father, Sarah commits to reciting the Mourner's Kaddish twice a day in synagogue for eleven monthsa Jewish mourning ritual that was historically reserved for sonsdespite her father's initial request that she hire someone male to do so.

As she travels the country for work, Sarah must find a synagogue where she can pray in each city and town she visits, a challenge that brings many surprisesand upsets. Throughout her year of devotion, Sarah takes comfort in the loving memories of her childhood while at the same time grappling with some very painful onesultimately discovering how the path of faith and grief can lead to true healing.
