Pigs in Heaven
About this Book When six-year-old
Turtle Greer witnesses a freak accident at the Hoover Dam, her insistence
on what she has seen and her mother's belief in her lead to a man's dramatic
rescue. But Turtle's moment of celebrity draws her into a conflict of historic
proportions. The crisis quickly envelops not only Turtle and her mother,
but everyone else who touches their lives in a complex web connecting their
future and their past. A deeply felt novel of love despite the risks, of
tearing apart and coming together, Pigs in Heaven travels the roads
from rural Kentucky and the urban Southwest to Heaven, Oklahoma, and the
Cherokee Nation. As this spellbinding novel unfolds, it draws the reader
into a world of heartbreak and redeeming love, testing the boundaries of
family, and the many separate truths about the ties that bind.
