About Author

Kathryn Lynn Davis

Kathryn Lynn Davis has deep roots in Riverside, Calif. Indeed, she was born and raised in Riverside and she continues to live here with her photographer husband, Michael J. Elderman (who in addition to running his own gallery on Lemon Street, also works as a contract photographer for The City of Riverside). Kathryn has written eight novels, including At the Wind's Edge, Child of Awe, Sing to Me of Dreams, and The New York Times Bestseller, Too Deep for Tears. Her work has also appeared in the anthology, Mother: Famous Writers Celebrate Motherhood with a Treasury of Short Stories, Essays, and Poems. Some may write in the hopes of making their readers laugh, but I suspect Kathryn would rather make her readers cry. She has a deep and abiding love for words; for her characters who have it in their hearts to live honorably and truthfully, such that by the end you want to share in their lives; and for the wild, gorgeous country they inhabit.

Description

Kathryn Lynn Davis returns to wild, idyllic Glen Affric, home to the memorable characters in "Too Deep for Tears," and draws us into a world of suspense and haunting emotion....During the spring of 1988, on a small Scottish island battered into stark beauty by the sea, eighteen-year-old Eva Crawford leaves her childhood home to unearth the truth about herself, her mother, and her family. In a spare Glasgow bedroom, Eva finds a worn, yellowed journal and a faded scrap of ribbon. She is soon spellbound by the story of her ancestors: Ailsa Rose Sinclair, who rejoiced in the paradise of Glen Affric...Ian Fraser, Ailsa's never-forgotten first love...Alanna Sinclair, Ailsa's daughter, who met the love of her life in the peace of Glen Affric. Each had to confront their own demons, old loyalties and new betrayals, as a devastating tragedy loomed.... One hundred years later, Eva Crawford must learn to forgive the mother she never knew, to move toward the future, and the man who wants to open her heart to the greatest treasure her family can offer....
