Book description
Glory Vigil, newly married and unexpectedly pregnant at 41, is nesting
in the home she and her husband Joseph have just moved to in Santa Fe, a
house that is rumoured to have a resident ghost. Their adopted daughter
Juniper is home from college for Thanksgiving and in love for the very
first time, quickly learning how a relationship changes everything. But
Juniper has a tiny arrow lodged in her heart, a leftover shard from the
day eight years earlier when her sister Casey disappeared - in a time
before she'd ever met Glory and Joseph.
When a fieldwork course takes Juniper to a pueblo only a few hours
away, she finds herself right back in the past she thought she'd finally
buried. Dazzlingly written, indelibly moving, and deeply profound,
Solomon's Oak is filled with grace, heart, and wisdom, and a rich cast
of real characters...Truly a gem. Jo-Ann Mapson is the author of ten
previous novels, including the beloved Solomon s Oak,
winner of the American Library Association s 2011 RUSA Award for Women s
Fiction, Hank & Chloe
, Blue Rodeo
(CBS TV movie), and the Los Angeles Times

. She lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with her husband and their four
dogs. Visit www. joannmapson. com.
