Annie Crow Knoll: Sunrise (Book 1) by Gail Priest
Annie Crow Knoll: Sunrise is a story about loss, survival, and the healing powers of friendship and nature. Annie is a strong-minded girl, who battles her secretive mother to uncover the truth about her grandmother's death. At nineteen, she goes against social convention and trusts and relies on Bo, her family's African-American friend and her surrogate father, as she struggles to save the fourteen summer rental cottages left to her by her parents. When the family legacy of depression emerges in her early adulthood, and Annie faces estrangement from her husband and young son, will she be able to embrace the love and acceptance that is offered by someone who has been there all along?
In this family saga, the ties that bind and tear us apart twine together the people whose lives are changed by Annie's fierce determination and the beauty of her knoll nestled along the head-waters of the Chesapeake Bay.
