This week Stephanie has chosen “LIGHT OF THE MOON” by Luanne Rice. Spurred by her brother’s dying wish, Susannah Connolly has travelled from her lifelong home on the Connecticut shoreline to the famed French Camargue, to see its famous white horses and find a mysterious saint linked to her family’s history. An accomplished anthropologist, Susannah has always been confident of her ability to navigate anywhere on the globe. But in the wake of a failed love affair, and grieving the loss of her mother, she is adrift and uncertain, seeking only time alone to dig deeply into the personal archaeology of her own life.
American-born Grey Dempsey had come to Camargue as a journalist, fell in love with a celebrated Romany rider, and suffered a devastating loss of his own. Now he operates a ranch as he struggles to raise his spirited but troubled daughter, who after a terrible night, years ago, fears the horses she once loved.
“LIGHT OF THE MOON” is available at the Jeff Reichelt Memorial Library in Big Sandy now.
