Crow Lake, (Paperback)

<b>#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER - The stellar debut novel from Mary Lawson (<i>A Town Called Solace</i>)--a shimmering tale of love, death and redemption set in a rural northern community where time stands still</b> <p>A gorgeous, slow-burning story of family love and misunderstandings, of resentments harbored and driven underground. Set in the rough-hewn heart of the Canadian Shield, <i>Crow Lake</i> brings us into the fold of the Morrison family--four suddenly orphaned children bound close by loss. Young Kate Morrison worships her elder brother, Matt, whose passionate interest in the natural world consoles and inspires her. But as an adult, she feels estranged from her siblings--Matt, Luke, and the irrepressible Bo--who once composed her entire world, and she can't reconcile the heroic brother of her youth with the all-too-human individual he has become. </p><p>Mary Lawson pays out their gripping, emotionally and morally subtle story with heartbreaking humor and consummate control, overturning one's expectations to the end. </p><p><b>"I've been trying to tell everyone I know about Mary Lawson. . . . Each one of her novels is just a marvel." --Anne Tyler, bestselling author of <i>Three Days in June</i></b></p>
