The Forest That Keeps Them

Constant chaos was created the moment Rainy heard the screams that came from silence. Now, she's returned to the same small farming town in Colorado but not much has changed. Being lost still offers a direction for the simple fact that a person knows where they belong. Rainy is beyond lost; she has no direction, no purpose and nowhere to call home other than the walls her parents keep. She finds herself with a decision to make, right or left. One thing she knows for sure, she can't stay in that town. That door closed the same night she lost her childhood. Regardless of the voices she hears or the people she sees, Rainy knows her moment of reckoning is now; she must uncover her truth, her reality, or her insanity and surrender to whatever she unearths. Deep roots in the Cheyenne Native American culture, Rainy understands that when she can't seem to heal her broken mind, it is time to embark on an Earth walk; a tradition given to the women in the tribe who have lost more than hope. After Rainy meets Ellie, an old woman that's been stashed in the forest, her life turns in a direction that she never saw coming. What shattered Rainy years before has come back and now she is asked to do it again."CJ Morgan and her debut novel is thought-provoking and before you know it, you'll question your own moral compass.
