In the hauntingly vivid compilation "Faces of Life," Courtney Johnson weaves three spine-tingling narratives that thrust readers into the heart of human resilience in the face of the unspeakable. Each story, a chilling odyssey of adverse life experiences, exposes the raw, often dark facets of loss - of life, of health, of love - and the complexities of domestic partnerships with an intensity that will leave readers gripping the edge of their seats.
