Summary

1975. In the town of Rexburg, Idaho, Aran Rigby and his siblings are locked in orbit around their emotionally abusive father Gad. Arriving in Rexburg is Linda Duff, an outsider from Seattle hoping to plant new roots far from the bitter ones of her childhood. She's quickly taken with Aran, but when they fall in love, Linda is drawn into a family more damaged than the one she left behind. Linda becomes an unwitting catalyst for the upheaval of Gad's oppression. Now it's time for them all to break free of the past, overcome the unforgivable, and find a new way forward - whatever the price. Author of "One for the Blackbird, One for the Crow.'
