All that Pearl knows can be encapsulated in one word: Seed.
It is the isolated community that she was born into. It is
the land that she sows and reaps. It is the center of her
family and everything that means home. And it is all kept
under the watchful eye of Papa S. At fifteen years old, Pearl is finally old enough to be
chosen as Papa S.’s companion. She feels excitement . . .
and surprising trepidation that she cannot explain. The
arrival of a new family into the Seed community—particularly
the teenage son, Ellis—only complicates the life and
lifestyle that Pearl has depended upon as safe and constant.
Ellis is compelling, charming, and worldly, and he seems to
have a lot of answers to questions Pearl has never thought
to ask. But as Pearl digs to the roots of the truth, only
she can decide what she will allow to come to the surface. Lisa Heathfield’s suspenseful, scintillating debut features
a compelling voice that combines blithe naïveté, keen
observation, and sincere emotion.
