Book overview
Surrounded by a macabre chain of events, Lila Huff refuses to break. Determination, gritty humor, and the steady light of others carry her through the darkness."
- Amy S. Taylor, Southern Book Review
After surviving a devastating car accident that claims the life of her boyfriend, twenty-three-year-old Lila Huff is left in full-time care at Happy Valley Nursing Home-the youngest resident by decades.
She has no memory of her mother. No clear past to hold onto. And no answers for why the woman she once loved has been erased from her life.
As fragments of memory begin to surface, Lila realizes something far more disturbing: the truth she's searching for may have been hidden from her all along.
What really happened to her mother before the crash-and why is no one willing to tell her?
Set deep in Appalachia, Our Happy Valley Home is a haunting Southern Gothic novel of mystery, grace, and redemption, where forgotten lives intersect and even the most broken places hold the possibility of light.
