It has been ten months since forest conservationist Sienna lost her daughter in a tragic home accident when she was the only other person around. Kira's death transforms Sienna into an overprotective mother to her son. But then Kai dies under similar circumstances. Desperate to keep from losing her mind, if only to preserve the memories of her children, Sienna climbs into the treehouse where Kai took his last breath. While meditating to connect with him, terrifying images of a "mother tree," a nurturing hub tree Sienna studied in an isolated meadow near their lake house, corrupt all memories of her kids. No longer a majestic, colorful sentinel, the tree menaces her with its limbs draped in leaves that morph into skeletal hands. As Sienna's thoughts fester, convincing her that her children's deaths were not simple accidents, those around her try to persuade her she must be guilty of harming Kira and Kai, even if she can't remember. Anxious to unveil the terrible truth hiding in her psyche, Sienna instead finds herself in very physical danger as secrets come to light.… (meer)

Throughout Deciduous, flashbacks to Sienna’s memories reveal Kira and Kai’s personalities and the affection between mother and children. These realistic moments continue to develop the relationships in the family, with a tragic edge because the reader is always aware that the children won’t live to grow up. This bittersweet quality, blending the joy of mother love with tragic loss, fills the story, even in scenes of great tension.

My full review (without spoilers) is on my blog. ( )

Ten months ago, Sienna lost her young adult daughter, Kira, when she fell to her death from their family tree-house. It was devastating and heart-breaking, and she tried real hard to deal with this traumatic incident..
And, today, when Sienna found her 12-year-old son, Kai, dead on the floor of the same tree-house, the burden of grief and guilt was so unbearable that had severely affected her mental health..
When the law enforcement discovered evidences that potentially dictate Kai’s death was something else other than accidental, Sienna’s world was turned upside-down, not knowing that herself was in great danger!
The brilliant Michael Devendorf has cleverly crafted this phenomenal DECIDUOUS, a very original thriller comprises of anguished emotion, suspense and dark secrets that ends with an unexpected twist!
I would like to thank Devendorf for giving me the opportunity to enjoy this enthralling thriller! ( )
