A New York Times bestseller and Oprah's Book Club Pick-the unique and deeply moving saga of four generations of African-American women whose journey from slavery to freedom begins on a Creole plantation in Louisiana. Beginning with her great-great-great-great grandmother, a slave owned by a Creole family, Lalita Tademy chronicles four generations of strong, determined black women as they battle injustice to unite their family and forge success on their own terms. They are women whose lives begin in slavery, who weather the Civil War, and who grapple with contradictions of emancipation, Jim Crow, and the pre-Civil Rights South. As she peels back layers of racial and cultural attitudes, Tademy paints a remarkable picture of rural Louisiana and the resilient spirit of one unforgettable family. There is Elisabeth, who bears both a proud legacy and the yoke of bondage... her youngest daughter, Suzette, who is the first to discover the promise-and heartbreak-of freedom... Suzette's strong-willed daughter Philomene, who uses a determination born of tragedy to reunite her family and gain unheard-of economic independence... and Emily, Philomene's spirited daughter, who fights to secure her children's just due and preserve their dignity and future. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, Cane River presents a slice of American history never before seen in such piercing and personal detail.

She believed in angels. Soon everyone will. Is one gleamer enough to confront the Murk head-on in this third installment of the Sheena Meyer series? In The Girl Who Spoke to the Wind, Sheena fought against thoughts of fear and defeat--mind games used by the Murk to make her lose hope. She and her friends faced Luke Tobias and risked their lives to save Dingy and the missing children. But it's clear the fight against the Murk has just begun. Sheena sees the Murk everywhere; at her school dance and in her classroom. Only this time, someone else sees it too. If angels are with her, Sheena can't tell. She hasn't received a text or any form of contact from her angel. It worries her so much that she's having nightmares and believes she is no longer a gleamer. She turns to the Lumen for answers, the strange book left to her by Mr. Tobias. It's written in a language only she can decipher and unfolds a destiny she's not ready to accept. At that back are blank pages that fill as the Murk gets stronger. Sheena fears there's no hope. Can she figure out what the "Brilliant light" is that the Lumen speaks of in time to save her friends? The Girl Who Captured the Sun is the third book in the Sheena Meyer adventure series. It's a perfect fit for readers who love fast-moving page-turners with memorable characters.
