The House Of Deep Water

More about the book

River Bend, Michigan, is the kind of small town most can't imagine leaving, but three women couldn't wait to escape. When each must return - Linda never sure what she wants; her mother, Paula, always too sure; and Beth, one of River Bend's only black daughters, now a mother who'd planned to raise her own children anywhere else - their paths collide under Beth's father's roof. Filled with the voices of mothers and daughters, husbands, lovers, and fathers, The House of Deep Water explores motherhood, trauma, love, loss, and new beginnings found in a most unlikely place: home.
