Crow Lake
by Mary Lawson (2002)
★3.80(27 ratings)
Crow Lake is set in the wild terrain of northern Ontario, where heartbreak and hardship are mirrored in the landscape, and the sins of the fathers are visited on the sons. Orphaned young, Kate Morrison was her older brother Matt's protégée. Matt, a born naturalist, was going places -- until he fell in love. And Kate has never quite forgiven him for turning his back on what could have been. In this universal drama of family love and misunderstandings, Lawson ratchets up the tension with heartbreaking humor.
