Overview

In a time when love meant silence and sacrifice, how far would you go for mercy? Dayton, Ohio, 1946. Lotte Walheim is a lonely housewife in a marriage of convenience, bound not by love but by necessity. Her husband, Albert, manages her father's soap factory and maintains a long-hidden relationship with his high school sweetheart, James. In a society swift to condemn, Albert and Lotte offer each other safety, if not affection. Then Father Henry Werther arrives-young, devout, and quietly magnetic. Believing he's been called to help her, he offers Lotte kindness and counsel. What begins as a cautious friendship becomes something far more dangerous. In the aftermath of World War II and in the heart of a tightly knit Catholic community, Lotte and Henry risk everything to follow their hearts. But secrets do not stay hidden for long, and the fragile alliance between love, faith, and duty begins to crack. As Albert, Lotte, and Henry's choices converge, they all must decide between the lives and vocations they were raised to uphold-and the families they have built. Even the Faithful is a haunting, emotionally layered novel about love that defies convention, faith that demands sacrifice, and the quiet rebellion of those who live for compassion when the world offers none. Perfect for readers of Kristin Hannah, Anthony Doerr, and Julia Kelly, this intimate historical novel explores the hidden lives of ordinary people bound by faith, secrecy, and the ache of impossible love.
