In a town called Daedalus Falls, it’s easy for the weight of wings to overwhelm. But in the summer of 1992, three generations of women in the Stanton family realize hidden strengths that give them the power to soar. As Bonnie’s aging mother falls prey to the ravages of dementia, Bonnie must race to make sense of both her past and present, discovering the truth of long-buried family secrets that have the power to destroy — or to heal. Her niece Meg, meanwhile, is planning a wedding to the perfect man — and then watching as a brutal attack causes fear and uncertainty that may pull them apart. Finally Jane, stuck in the hell of being a teenager, comes of age in a way she never thought possible as she learns to take care of a young boy with autism. Ultimately, all three women discover grace and truth within themselves and their common bonds in this story of love and hope.
Summer Melody is a testament to how, in the face of tremendous challenges, family can bring us strength to survive, endure and maybe even flourish.
“Summer Melody is a tender and uplifting novel about principles and secrets and how family ties ultimately are the cords that bind us all together. Over the course of the story I came to know Jane, Bonnie and Meg and cared deeply about what happened to each of them. This is a tale of love, forgiveness and hope. The very best kind of read.” Patricia Wood, bestselling author of Lottery
