Inspired by true events, in Sofia Grant’s powerfully
moving new novel a young woman peels back the layers of
her family’s history, discovering a tragedy in the past
that explains so much of the present. This unforgettable
story is one of hope, healing, and the discovery of
truth. Sometimes the untold stories of the past are the ones we
need to hear... When Katie Garrett gets the unexpected news that she’s
received an inheritance from the grandmother she hardly
knew, it couldn’t have come at a better time. She flees
Boston—and her increasingly estranged husband—and travels
to rural Texas. There, she’s greeted by her distant cousin Scarlett.
Friendly, flamboyant, eternally optimistic, Scarlett
couldn’t be more different from sensible Katie. And as
they begin the task of sorting through their
grandmother’s possessions, they discover letters and
photographs that uncover the hidden truths about their
shared history, and the long-forgotten tragedy of the New
London school explosion of 1937 that binds them.
