Throwing Stones

Molly Absolon's forthcoming memoir explores her journey through grief and anger after the tragic death of her husband. Pete was climbing in the Wind River mountains when a hiker threw a rock from above, killing Pete instantly. Molly struggled with a sense of injustice and a desire for vengeance until gradually  she found solace and healing through beauty, nature and friends. Her memoir maps this path to redemption.
