When Willow is born and her mother dies moments later, only the narrator
of this spellbinding debut novel knows the death isn't from
complications of childbirth. Amelie-Anais, buried on the Nebraska
hilltop where the family home resides, tells the story of deceit,
survival, and love from beyond the grave. Following Willow's life and
Willow's incredible passion to paint despite loneliness, a physical
handicap, and being raised by a father plagued with secrets,
Amelie-Anais weaves together the lives of four enigmatic generations.
