Salt Creek by Lucy Treloar

5.0

In the tradition of The Mosquito Coast and The Poisonwood Bible -- a driven father drags his clan to the middle of nowhere to serve God and his own pride -- but a book all its own. Prose that sings. Characters that breathe and ache and make you ache and want what they want. Plot that doesn't try to hard but makes you stay up late to read another page. What is not to love with this book? Gripping, thoughtful, brooding.
