Fletcher Dukes' life has been shaped by a single choice and a treasured talisman - a peach seed monkey with diamond eyes. Given to him by his lost love, Altovise Benson, this family heirloom holds the key to understanding their complicated past. As Fletcher begins to reckon with long-ago decisions, he uncovers secrets that have burdened his family for generations. This poignant novel explores how kin pass down legacies of sorrow and joy, and how a small spark of hope can ripple across time. Through a powerful exploration of family, love, and legacy, Anita Gail Jones crafts an indelible portrait of the human experience.
