From Sherry Parnell, author of Let The Willows Weep, comes a long-awaited new novel that unwinds a family's darkest secrets and takes an unflinching look at life in the rural South.
Effie Bilfrey has lived her entire life on Talon Ridge, a dead-end Appalachian town that generations have tried, and failed, to leave. When her only daughter Sarah disappears without explanation, leaving her two-year-old daughter Lottie behind, Effie is left to search her home and heart for a reason the young mother would leave her small child and family.
As Lottie comes of age, her obsession with unraveling her mother's story and leaving Talon Ridge for good consumes her. But pulling at the delicate threads that have held the family's secrets for decades reveals a shocking truth about her grandmother's past and Sarah's fateful choice.
A complex tale about two families and three generations linked by a web of secrets, Daughter of the Mountain, is a moving examination of the cost of generational trauma, the weight of injustice, and the power of the female spirit.
