When Stone Wings Fly by Karen Barnett

 

Well written story of a family rooted in the Smoky Mountain Park. They were of the original families who lived there before the park took over their land. Goes back and forth between Rosie who lived there to Kiernan who was looking for her family's roots, especially the stone bird that her failing Gran wanted her to go there and find. Keeps you hooked as she uncovers their story. Deep love and excruciating pain for these people as it unfolds, for those in present day as well as the past. I felt frustrated near the conclusion, but it all worked out ok. Some good wisdom, good Christian lessons from those who are looked at as "simple mountain folks." Hard lives, hard lessons.

I received this book free from the author, publisher and NetGalley book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
