The Scent of Rain and Lightningby Nancy Pickard
This story centers on the life of Jody Linder, who was 3 when her father was murdered and her mother disappeared. The person everyone believes is responsible for the crime is captured and imprisoned. The town thinks he will never get out, but 20 years later he is released and returns to the small Kansas town where the crime was committed.
Jody and her family must come to terms with what really happened 20 years ago and the truth about their loved ones. The book is a story of betrayal, the futility of revenge, and the necesssity of forgiveness.
This book will grab you from the first page and not let you go. Great for a summer read.
