Finding Casey

Author(s): Jo-Ann Mapson

NEW RELEASE

Glory Vigil, newly married and unexpectedly pregnant at 41, is nesting in the home she and her husband Joseph have just moved to in Santa Fe, a house that is rumoured to have a resident ghost. Their adopted daughter Juniper is home from college for Thanksgiving and in love for the very first time, quickly learning how a relationship changes everything. But Juniper has a tiny arrow lodged in her heart, a leftover shard from the day eight years earlier when her sister Casey disappeared - in a time before she'd ever met Glory and Joseph. When a fieldwork course takes Juniper to a pueblo only a few hours away, she finds herself right back in the past she thought she'd finally buried.

Finding Casey is a heart-warming story of love, family, and the bond between sisters, from the bestselling author of Solomon's Oak

Finding Casey is so many things: a love letter to the American Southwest, an unstoppable read, a redemptive tale that proves the threads binding a family are unbreakable, no matter how far apart we are flung by fate. This is why Jo-Ann Mapson is one of my favorite authors - quite simply, she's an archivist of the human heart Jodi Picoult Finding Casey is a beautiful, rugged journey into the depths of the heart Robyn Carr, #1 best-selling author of the Virgin River novels No one tunnels as effortlessly into the mysteries of human heart the way that Mapson does.
