Tras muchos años trabajando en una tienda, Lyle vive ahora siguiendo el ritmo de las estaciones en la granja que comparte con su mujer en un pueblo de Wisconsin. Están felices porque su hija Shiloh, madre soltera con la que mantienen una complicada relación desde su adolescencia, ha vuelto a casa con Isaac, su nieto de cinco años. Pero Shiloh está saliendo con un pastor evangélico que ejerce una enorme influencia sobre ella. Lyle teme que vuelvan a irse de casa y perderlos de nuevo.
En su tercera novela, Nickolas Butler vuelve a demostrar que es un maestro en la construcción de personajes y en la recreación de un espacio geográfico, el Medio Oeste americano, que pocos conocen mejor que él. Algo en lo que creer explora las relaciones entre padres e hijos, abuelos y nietos: una historia sobre la comunidad y la familia, y sobre lo que estamos dispuestos a hacer para cuidar y proteger a quienes amamos.
After many years spent working in a grocery store, Lyle now lives on his farm in rural Wisconsin, watching the passing of the seasons and nature's cycles. He and his wife are happy that their daughter Shiloh, a single mother with whom they have had a difficult relationship since she was a teen, has returned home with her five-year-old son. But Shiloh is dating an evangelical pastor who has enormous influence over her, and Lyle fears that they will leave home and he will lose his daughter once again. In his third novel, Nickolas Butler once again proves that he is a master of building characters and recreating a geographic space, the American Midwest, that few know better. Algo en lo que creer explores the relationships between parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren: it is a story about community and family, and what we are willing to do to care for and protect those we love.Also in
