The High Heaven by Joshua Wheeler
In 1967, Izzy Gently is orphaned when the doomsday cult she was born into clashes with the sheriff in the New Mexico desert. Taken in by a struggling rancher as NASA rocket tests alter the landscape, she grows into a life marked by loss, addiction, and a long search for faith. Moving from the Southwest through Texas to New Orleans, Izzy’s encounters with eccentric characters and her efforts to help others reclaim a sense of wonder become a personal journey about belief and meaning in the Space Age.
