Description

Hoping to learn from her estranged father the fate of a child a powerful family had secretly forced her to give up when she was a teen in the remote foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, Lennie Riley returns home to Tennessee. But she’s too late. Her brother, John, tells her their father has died. Desperate and determined to reach her deceased dad, she sets out with skeptical John to find a rumored guardakin angel in the Appalachian Mountains who can connect deceased parents with the children they leave behind. Love builds and sustains families across generations. But can it bridge the divide between life and death? Lennie’s answer hinges on a daring leap of faith for a second chance with the child she never knew. Readers of Delia Owens’ Where the Crawdads Sing and Sue Monk Kidd’s The Secret Life of Bees will enjoy this moving Southern family saga.
