In 1969, the first footsteps on the moon brighten America
with possibilities. But along the Mississippi Gulf Coast, a
category five storm is brewing, and the Blake sisters of
Biloxi are restless for change. Beth "Sis" Blake has always
been the caretaker, the dutiful one, with the weight of her
family's happiness—and their secrets—on her shoulders. She
dreams of taking off to pursue her own destiny, but not
before doing whatever it takes to rescue her sister.
Emily Blake, an unwed mother trying to live down her past,
wants the security of marriage for the sake of her
five-year-old son, Andy. But secure is the last thing she
feels with her new husband. Now she must put aside pride,
and trust family to help her find the courage to
escape.
With Hurricane Camille stirring up havoc, two sisters—each
desperate to break free—begin a remarkable journey where
they'll discover that in the wake of destruction lies new
life, unshakable strength and the chance to begin again.
Dreams are reborn and the unforgettable force of friendship
is revealed in The Oleander Sisters, an extraordinary story
of courage, love and sacrifice.
