Using blunt scissors, a Big Chief tablet, a borrowed
stapler and a Number Two pencil, Susan Wiggs self-published
her first novel at the age of eight. Today she is the
acclaimed, bestselling author of many poignant,
unforgettable novels, including Halfway to Heaven
and Passing Through Paradise. Susan lives on an
island in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, Jay, her
daughter, Elizabeth, and an Airedale that hasn't been
groomed since 1994.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author comes
a powerful, emotionally complex story of love, loss, the
pain of the past—and the promise of the
future.
Sometimes the greatest dream starts with the
smallest element. A single cell, joining with another. And
then dividing. And just like that, the world changes. Annie
Harlow knows how lucky she is. The producer of a popular
television cooking show, she loves her handsome husband and
the beautiful Los Angeles home they share. And now, she’s
pregnant with their first child. But in an instant, her life
is shattered. And when Annie awakes from a yearlong coma,
she discovers that time isn’t the only thing she’s
lost.
Grieving and wounded, Annie retreats to her old
family home in Switchback, Vermont, a maple farm generations
old. There, surrounded by her free-spirited brother, their
divorced mother, and four young nieces and nephews, Annie
slowly emerges into a world she left behind years ago: the
town where she grew up, the people she knew before, the
high-school boyfriend turned judge. And with the discovery
of a cookbook her grandmother wrote in the distant past,
Annie unearths an age-old mystery that might prove the
salvation of the family farm.
Family Tree is
the story of one woman’s triumph over betrayal, and how she
eventually comes to terms with her past. It is the story of
joys unrealized and opportunities regained. Complex,
clear-eyed and big-hearted, funny, sad, and wise, it is a
novel to cherish and to remember.
