When Nora Hale returns to her childhood home in the Appalachian hills after her mother's death, she expects only to settle the estate and leave. Instead, she finds her mother's unfinished manuscript—a memoir hidden among pressed wildflowers—and a community still whispering about the spring her father vanished. As trilliums, the wake robins, bloom across the forest floor, Nora uncovers old letters, buried wounds, and a truth her family has kept silent for thirty years. Wake Robin is a haunting story about the seasons of grief, the roots that bind us, and the fragile courage it takes to let something long dormant bloom again.
