Light in the Forest Julianne Sisung

Spanish flu attacks Hersey, ravaging the village, and Kate fears for her family. She struggles to keep them safe as one daughter leaves home, one gets pregnant and one is kidnapped. Strong women of three generations define their relationships with one another, and with those they love, as America enters WWI and boys leave to fight. Harley, the hobo, surprises everyone with astonishing revelations, Wolf still rolls his eyes, and Verna still cussed and drinks moonshine. Light in the Forest is about frailties, strengths, and what we mean to others. It's about a spark of light in a dark place.
