Publisher's Synopsis
Terminal cancer, a radical cure, and a family desperate to save someone they love. Ashling Mahoney is descendant from a strong line of mystical healers. When Ashling marries a rancher named Ethan Rafferty, she unwittingly reawakens an ancient family prophecy. Together, they settle on his ranch in Oregon, where Ashling soon discovers that there is something unusual about the trees on Ethan's land-a medicinal property that cures disease. Inspired by the promise of helping others, Ethan and Ashling are hard at work on their research when they learn that Ashling is pregnant. They raise young Brigid, whose gifts surpass even Ashling's, until one day they receive a devastating diagnosis that threatens to tear their loving family apart. The Rafferty family soon discovers that there is more than one way to experience life, joy, grief, death, and the after-life. Not all will embrace the wisdom of the ancient trees without a fight. But for those with an open heart and mind, there is magic and healing, and peace. The Girl Who Talked With Trees is a tale of generations, intertwining a rich family legacy, with humor, grace, tears, and a happily ever after.
