Welcome back to Hawk Island and the village of Two Brooks. While the sea slowly kisses the sand on the small beach of Saint Carlos, preparations for an Episcopal retreat begin while members of the Sacristy, a group of unconventional women who live in Two Brooks, set down a new path lined with quandaries and challenges. Angela Matias is a cunning, intelligent, and persistent spitfire who feels compelled to choose just one of the three men she loves. While Ascendida struggles with the concept of forgiveness and her desire to love a man not a boy, Nascimento continues to grapple with her voyeurism. As Madalena must either forget Saul and move on with her life or bring him back, Dona Mafalda yearns to be loved, but cannot trust love to be kind. As the women take it upon themselves to solve a centuries-long mystery, they once again find themselves questioning the rules and norms of their island and inescapably facing the consequences. In this third book of the Hawk Island series, members of the Sacristy must come to terms with decisions and actions that profoundly affect their lives.

"On a rainy Black Friday in the city of San Francisco, a cozy coffe shop serves sancuary and lattes at the assistance of a lone employee: a kind, young woman with red hair and purple eyes. ... Trickling inside the cafe one by one, the guests soon discover that each of them has something in common -- something that will bring the escaped chaos of the shopping frenzy right into their comfortable hideaway."--Cover

Travel on the roller coaster ride of the human mind. Each section in Black, Blue, Purple, Pale, captures the emotional intensity of the state of mind that each color represents. Starting with the darkly rumbling inner-pain personified in "Black," girls with "Lithium and Laced Leggings" and "Creatures of the Night" will "Divide by Zero" and "Break the Framework of Society and Self." The darkness melts into "Blue," where confusion and chaos reign in the world of "The Castlebuilder" and "Quantum Subshells." Things begin to recalibrate themselves in "Purple," as the speaker discovers a "Sensuous and Soporific" love that inevitably brews "A Fire Inside." Finally, "Pale" represents the speaker's catharsis and emotional maturity. But not completely white, "Pale" leaves the speaker painfully cognizant of the scars and mistakes of the past. A beautiful and modern anthology, Black, Blue, Purple, Pale celebrates the great spectrum of emotions--sorrow, confusion, passion, and acceptance-- that characterize personal growth.
