Description
The Crooked Branch by Jeanine Cummins is a deeply moving and richly drawn novel. After the birth of her daughter, Majella finds herself feeling isolated and exhausted, but it's at her childhood home that she discovers a diary belonging to her maternal ancestor Ginny, which reveals a shocking story of murder in her family history. As Majella delves into Ginny's past, she uncovers surprising truths about her own identity and the events that led to Ginny's decision to call herself a killer. Determined to understand her heritage, Majella sets out on a journey of discovery that ultimately leads her to confront her own fears and doubts as a mother. With luminous prose, Cummins explores themes of family, history, and identity, creating a haunting and thought-provoking novel that will linger long after the final page is turned.
