Publisher's Synopsis
Maura Jaeger has hidden herself in the hills of rural Pennsylvania, but when her father dies she must return to the small town where she grew up, confronting ghosts at every turn: her beloved brother Colin, whose tour of duty in Vietnam changed him forever, the lovers who left her behind; and the family that has exiled her because of her lesbianism. 'A powerful story, beautifully written...Don't miss the auspicious debut of this important and gifted new novelist.' - Katherine V Forrest
