 Would you like to get to know her story?  There are two choices Through the Narrow Gate and The Spiral Staircase.  Through the Narrow Gate covers her time as a nun in the 1960's, and her decision to leave that life, while Spiral Staircase deals with the aftermath and her growing interest in the spiritual life, but from a different perspective.
