"A mystery, love story, family saga filled with memorable characters you care about deeply. The author moves between generations with a sure hand, keeping the reader securely grounded in each life and storyline." -Karen Osborne, author of Reckonings
Three women of different generations are bound together by history and mystery: Louise Wright, 19th century; her 20th century great-granddaughter, Lou McManus, and Kapi McManus, Lous teenaged step-granddaughter, each full of conflicts, questions, and contradictions.
Two historical storylines run parallel, converging as Lou and Kapi explore the mystery of Louise Wright. Louise Wright, soon to marry the reverends son, falls in love with a Native American, and gives birth to their multicultural baby. Three generations later, Lou McManus and Kapi, seeming to share nothing, are saddled with each other when Kapis mother dies. However, they discover a shared love of history, local and personal.
In their explorations of Louise Wrights story, Kapi is convinced Louise was Native American, infuriating Lou, who was brought up to revile natives. The two of them try to work through devastating losses, generational differences, snarled opinions, and historical excavations in their searches.
