Luanne Rice will appear at the Belmont Library on Tuesday, April 26 at 7:00 pm to read from her latest novel, The Silver Boat. From the beloved New York Times bestselling writers comes a heartwarming yet heart-wrenching portrait of three far-flung sisters who come home to Martha's Vineyard one last time. Their mother's beach house is the only place any of them ever found true happiness and they need to begin the difficult process of letting go. Memories of their grandmother, mother, and their Irish father, who sailed away the year Dar turned twelve, rise up and expose the fine cracks in their family myth-especially when a cache of old letters reveals enough truth to send them back to their ancestral homeland.
There will be a wine and cheese reception at 6:30pm, and a book-selling and signing will follow the author’s presentation.
