The Light on Horn Island
After her life in New York collapses, Edie Gardner returns to her grandmother's small Mississippi community near wild Horn Island, where both old love and old grief await her. A mysterious antique shop gives Edie and her grandmother's friends a Victorian parlor game whose questions begin drawing long-held secrets into the open. At the same time, an unexplained light on Horn Island and a decades-old heartbreak suggest the community's past still has unfinished business. This Southern contemporary novel mixes multigenerational friendship, gentle mystery, romance, grief, and a touch of the transcendent.
