Resumen del Editor

Grenadine Scotch Wild has only vague memories of the parents she last saw when she was six years old. But she's never forgotten their final, panicked words to her, urging Grenadine to run. The mystery of their disappearance is just one more frayed strand in a life that has lately begun to unravel completely. One year into her rocky marriage to Covey, a well-known investor, he is arrested for fraud and embezzlement. And Grenadine, now a successful collage artist and painter, is facing jail time despite her innocence.

With Covey refusing to exonerate her unless she comes back to him, Grenadine once again takes the advice given to her so long ago: she runs. Hiding out in a mountain town in central Oregon until the trial, she finds work as a bartender and as assistant to a furniture maker who is busy rebuilding his own life. But even far from everything she knew, Grenadine is granted a rare chance, as potentially liberating as it is terrifying - to face down her past, her fears, and live a life as beautiful and colorful as one of her paintings.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Lamb is an awesome storyteller and moves seamlessly from the past to the present." ( RT Book Reviews)

Hard to get into but oh, what a compelling story!

“Grenadi’s” story is unbelievably sad & the way Lamb tells it, by switching back and forth from present to past is a little off-putting at first. But once you get used to it it is very effective. Makes you cry & laugh & wonder how a child could have even survived this unbelievable life…Wow!

Slow starter but worth the listen.

My first from this author. I started one night and thought too slow and stopped . Picked it back up during covid quarantine and was very delighted. Deep emotional baggage delivered well. No overly sexual content nor excessive cursing. I am looking forward to reading/listening more from this author.

Great book

A lot of mystery! Great book! I wish was a series and I had another book to read.

Oh my shoutin, spittin…

Parts of this hit a little too close to home. Other parts were heartbreaking or infuriating. There was laughter and tears. Hard to believe, yet sadly, potentially all too true. Good story, great narration

Fantastic story told with humor and grace

This was a detailed story with a rich plot and beautifully detailed characters. It had me rooting for the heroine from the beginning!

A kaleidoscope of life and the people we meet.

 once again, Cathy, Lamb has written a compelling book with such a diverse group of characters showing the reader that most people we meet along the way have something good to offer if we give them a chance. A compelling story full of heartbreak, overcome by love.

Great story of survival

This is my second Cathy Lamb story. The 2 I've read have a horrible seedy life or terrible situations her very creative characters experience. Great deal of humor. Ms. Lamb's writing is different than anyone I have read before. Interesting to learn about NW coast living. I look forward to reading more of her books.

Very moving story.

I felt her pain, despair, lose, strength, resolve, and her undying love for her people. What a great character!.

OMG!!!

I loved everything about this book. I can’t wait to read more from this author.

Very, very good!

Hard to put down with so many sun plots going on!
So entertaining and intriguing!
