A Sudden Light by Garth Stein
4.0

Garth Stein's latest book has a big PNW influence and deals with an old Seattle family that made their fortune in the logging business. But throughout the generations the family dysfunction has grown and young Trevor Riddell is left to try to set everything right. After growing up on the east coast, his father brings him to Seattle and to the Riddell family's "North Estate" and he uncovers their sordid past. Beautiful story of love and loss and I can't wait to sell it when it comes out in September.
