Publisher's Synopsis
Not all trees blossom, some wither in all seasons. Not all trees sit in forests, some are placed in solitude. And not all trees are innocent, some hold secrets that are kept buried as deep as their roots. It's only until these secrets, much like their roots, are unearthed that their stability is truly tested.Four years ago, Leo and Chloe Wells lost their older brother, Crash. He simply wasn't there one morning. Four years later, he returns, just as sudden as he left. And while Leo and Chloe seek their own answers, it's Crash that holds most of the questions. But a lot can change in four years: the details of a face, the loyalty of a heart, the curiosity of a mind. And even though not all changes are for the worse, the three siblings have suffered their fair share of them.Together, Leo and Chloe find themselves alone, both trying to cope with an alcoholic father, and an absent mother. Not all trees stand tall.Some trees grow alongside those who sit in their shade.
