In the spring of 1824, a flood devastates the village of Paradise. As the Bonner family struggles to rebuild, their way of life is threatened when their adopted daughter’s mother, a dangerous schemer with a secret, arrives back in town after a decade-long absence. The Bonners must stand together to protect both heart and home.  Told with a masterful storyteller’s skill and a devoted historian’s precision, Sara Donati weaves a rich and multilayered portrayal of family strength.          Rosina Lippi is no stranger to literary acclaim, having won the prestigious PEN/Hemingway Award for First Fiction as well as being short-listed for Britain’s coveted Orange Prize for Fiction. Under the pen name of Sara Donati, she continues her tradition of excellence with her bestselling Wilderness series.

With The Endless Forest, she delivers the final installment in this enthralling historical saga set in the American frontier and featuring the incomparable Bonner family.
