The Valley and the Flood by Rebecca Mahoney

3.0

Something was missing for me. Some elements of this were left vague - maybe a little too vague? I’m not sure how well the flashbacks worked; part of me thinks that a prologue would have set the reader up better. You could still do the flashbacks, but especially with the magical realism element you could actually make them more obscured or patchy but more impactful.
