Fiction
Wisconsin, 1961. Evelyn “Button” Peters is nine when
Winnalee Malone and her sister, Freeda, blow into town–and
from the moment she sees them, Button knows this will be a
summer unlike any other. Much to her mother’s dismay,
Button is fascinated by the Malone sisters, especially
Winnalee, a feisty scrap of a thing who carries around a
shiny silver urn containing her mother’s ashes and a tome
she calls “The Book of Bright Ideas.” It is here, Winnalee
tells Button, that she records everything she learns: her
answers to the mysteries of life. But sometimes those
mysteries conceal a truth better left buried. In this
summer of dry heat and family upheaval, loyalties will be
tested, unlikely alliances formed, and devastating secrets
revealed. And when it’s over, no one–from Winnalee and her
sister to Button and her family–will ever be the same.
