During Word War II, a family fnds life turned upside down when the
government opens a Japanese internment camp in their small Colorado
town. After a young girl is murdered, all eyes (and suspicions) turn to
the newcomers, the interlopers, the strangers.
This is her town as Rennie Stroud has never seen it before. She has just
turned thirteen and, until this time, life has pretty much been what her
father told her it should be: predictable and fair. But now the winds of
change are coming and, with them, a shift in her perspective. And Rennie
will discover secrets that can destroy even the most sacred things.
Part thriller, part historical novel, Tallgrass is a riveting
exploration of the darkest---and best---parts of the human heart.
