The Sisters Hemingway
Annie England Noblin. Morrow, $15.99 trade paper (384p) ISBN 978-0-06-267451-7
Noblin (Just Fine with Caroline) returns to Cold River, Mo., in this sweet tale of coming home after life goes awry in the big city. The three Hemingway sisters all head home for the funeral of their last living relative, Aunt Bee, with each leading very different lives from the last time they were in Cold River. Hadley is the wife of a senator, Pfeiffer works as a book editor in New York City, and Martha is a famous Nashville country singer fresh (and secretly) out of rehab. After the deaths of their mother and sister in a tornado, the sisters all left Cold River as soon as they came of age, each expecting to never return. In contrast to the stress and pressure of their new lives, the slow pace of Cold River and the easy familiarity of small-town life provide the sisters the opportunity to let their guard down. But when they chance upon a gruesome discovery that upsets what they thought they knew about their family history, they will have to face not only their own demons, but also the late Aunt Bee’s. With fun cameos of previously introduced residents of Cold River, Noblin’s heartwarming story of the strength of family will please fans and newcomers alike. (Feb.)
