Light on Snow by Anita Shreve
What makes a family? That's what twelve-year-old Nicky Dillon wonders after she and her widowed father discover a wailing abandoned baby in the snow-filled woods near their New Hampshire home. Through the days that follow, the Dillons and an unexpected visitor who soon turns up at their door-a young woman evidently haunted by her own terrible choices-face a thicket of decisions, each seeming to carry equal possibilities of heartbreak and redemption. Writing with all the emotional resonance that has drawn millions of readers around the world to her fiction, Anita Shreve unfolds in Light on Snow a tender and surprising novel about love and its consequences.
Anita Shreve is the bestselling author of fifteen books, including Testimony, The Pilot's Wife, which was featured on Oprah's Book Club, and The Weight of Water, which was a finalist for the Orange Prize in England. She resides in the state of Massachusetts.
