Twenty-one-year-old Skye Willis lives in Eufaula, Alabama, a tourist mecca of stately homes and world-class bass fishing. Her childhood friends are either stuck at dead ends or have moved on to accomplish Big Things. Skye's grandmother, Verna, insists on being called "Sparrow" because she suspects her ancestors were Muscogee Creek. She dresses in faux deerskin, offering a myth or legend to anyone who will listen. Skye has no idea what to do with her life. She's smart as hell, but she has no faith or knowledge there's something out there she was "born to do." Nor does she know much of anything about her father, who died in Afghanistan when she was a toddler. He and his family are a mystery her mother won't discuss. But when Sparrow sets out to confirm her Creek ancestry through genetic testing, Skye joins in. The results hit like a DNA bomb, launching them both on a path filled with surprises and life-changing events. Skye learns a harder truth than she ever expected. Alternating chapters between Skye's Alabama life and an intertwining tale of greed, deceit, and control in Texas, this story offers proof that all life is a woven tapestry of past, present, and future.… (meer)

Such an enjoyable read! The storyline, the dialogue, the history, the travel - I could've kept reading this story for another 346 pages!
Brimming with detail and well fleshed-out characters, this enchanting book leads you on an unforgettable journey.
Set mostly in the South, this plot is rich with family heritage and history giving added depth within the story.
Part mystery, part drama and slightly humorous, this well paced novel transitions between two storylines and then smoothly intertwines them into a fulfilling read. ( )
