Description
In the rugged Pacific Northwest at the turn of the twentieth century, a solitary orchardist named Talmadge dedicates his life to the land and the fruit he cultivates. His quiet existence is disrupted when two young, pregnant women seek refuge on his homestead, drawing him into a world of unexpected compassion and profound connection. As their presence brings both hope and danger, Talmadge must confront the ghosts of his past and protect his fragile, makeshift family from the brutal forces that threaten to tear them apart. Amanda Coplin's debut novel is a haunting exploration of love, loss, and the indelible bonds forged in the face of unspeakable cruelty, set against the backdrop of a wild and unforgiving landscape.
