The summers you spend at summer camp are indelibly etched
on
your heart. But what happens when the camp you love is
about
to close? Can you ever really say goodbye to the place that
made you who you are? These are the questions that plagues
Ethel, the seventy-year-old former camp director who is
nursing a broken heart after losing the love of her life as
she now faces the impending closure of the camp on Lake
Wenatchee that she called home. It's also a question that inspires change in forty-year-old
Shannon, who spent the summers of her youth as a vibrant,
capable camp counselor and is now directionless after
watching her career implode. And there's Laura, who has
lost
all intimacy with her husband and doesn't know if she can
save what seems to be gone forever. Finally, Ruby, who
betrayed Ethel years ago and hasn't spoken to her since,
hopes this will be her chance to make amends. When the four women learn that a homeless teen has been
hiding at camp, they realize camp is something much more
immediate for all: survival. And so the three generations of women search for a way to
save the place that saved them all, finding in the process
a
way back to themselves and each other in The Firelight
Girls, Kaya McLaren's novel of love and loss, heartbreak
and
healing.
