Wrapped in a Ribbon of Glass

By: Phelps, Katherine L.

Twenty-three years ago, Hannah Wheeler's father climbed into his truck and drove it off a cliff. Hannah still suffers the scars of her father's cruelty and her mother's measured retreat. Hannah is an overachieving divorc e who returns home to South Carolina after her mother's death to clean out and dispose of the old homestead. Amid the cobwebs, however, Hannah Wheeler and her siblings find skeletons still hanging in the family closet. In the past, they all served as unwilling curators over the family secrets where each held only a piece of the puzzle. Getting closer to her siblings has been an unexpected joy for Hannah. Her older brother Wilkes is a buttoned-down East Coast financier. Her younger sister Maddie is a bank manager who lived close to Mom and thus bore the brunt of Mom's decline. Younger brother Kyle is a west-coast musician, all music, all surfing, all the time. Then a surprise for Hannah. While boxing up her family's past, a second chance at love deftly lands in a graceful pirouette at Hannah's feet as a gift. A gift wrapped in a ribbon of glass.
