When you hide your light under a bushel basket, your light
doesn’t shine. That truism has been handed down for untold generations, but the
people who live near a secret spring don’t pay it any heed.
The story opens with a fully peopled, quaint small town. WWII
arrives, and the men and boys of the town enlist. As tragedy befalls them, the
women close ranks to survive. In doing so, their grief pollutes the restorative
effect of the magical spring hidden in the town. Some of the women leave town
too.
With each loss, the remnants grow more isolated, struggle
harder to survive. This book is the story of Liv, Maxine, Ruth, Susie, and
Anna. You’ll never think the same way about death again.
