A Feather on Every Wind

By Kathryn Henry

When fifteen-year-old Nancy Cooper's mother returns home after a mysterious five-week disappearance, nothing about her is the same, and a chilling silence settles over the house.

It's 1966, and in their small coastal town, rumors travel faster than the tides. Neighbors whisper that Marie Cooper was taken by the hermit who lives deep in Hillside. Others insist she left of her own free will. But Nancy knows only one thing for certain: whatever happened to her mother has followed her home.

With a father sinking deeper into drink, twin brothers who'd rather ignore the truth, and four younger siblings desperate for comfort, Nancy is left to hold together a family unraveling at the seams. As she searches for answers, she confronts not only the mystery of her mother's disappearance but a lifetime of secrets, guilt, and a darkness that has always lived just beneath the surface.

From the vibrant kitchens of Wu's Tea House to the isolated paths of Hillside, A Feather On Every Wind weaves together the powerful stories of a fractured family, an enigmatic hermit, and a village where nothing stays hidden forever.

Heartbreaking and deeply human, this gripping coming-of-age novel explores love, betrayal, resilience, and the haunting question: What do we owe the people who hurt us most?

Fans of The Glass Castle, Where the Crawdads Sing, and The Book of Ruth will be swept into this engrossing literary journey.

A Feather on Every Wind is a haunting exploration of heartbreak and resilience, reminding us that some family secrets are better left undiscovered.
