Last Summer in Algonac - Paperback
by Laurisa White Reyes (Author)
From the Spark Award-winning author of The Storytellers & Petals...
The summer of 1938 is idyllic for fourteen-year-old Dorothy Ann Reid. She's spent every summer of her life visiting her grandparent's home on the banks of the St. Clair River in Algonac, Michigan. But unbeknownst to her, this will be her last. As Dorothy and her family pass their time swimming, fishing, and boating, they are blissfully unaware that tragedy lurks just around the corner.
Last Summer in Algonac is a fictionalized account of the author's grandmother and her family's final summer before her father's suicide, which altered their lives forever. Inspired by real people and events, Laurisa Reyes has woven threads of truth with imagination, creating a "what if" tale. No one living today knows the details leading to Bertram Reid's death, but thanks to decades of letters, personal interviews, historical research, and a visit to Algonac, Reyes attempts to resolve unanswered questions, and provide solace and closure to the Reid family at last.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
