An irreverent, fly-on-the-wall view of the Lighthouse Ranch, a Christian commune-slash-cult that D'Arcy Fallon called home for three years in the mid-1970s

At 18 years old, when life's questions overwhelmed her and reconciling her family past with her future seemed impossible, D'Arcy Fallon accidentally came upon the Ranch during a hitchhike gone awry. Perched on a windswept bluff in Loleta, a dozen miles from anywhere in Northern California, this community of lost and found twenty-somethings lured her in with promises of abounding love, spiritual serenity, and a hardy, pioneer existence. What she didn't count on was the fog. After living communally with more than a dozen "sisters," marrying before she was ready, and doing domestic chores to keep the ranch afloat, Fallon's life and religious idealism begin to unravel. Through a series of harrowing and heartbreaking decisions, she begins the process that will lead her away from the ranch and into her own life one step at a time.
