wish you well.

synopsiss.
Tragedy strikes the New York-based Cardinal family when their car is involved
in a terrible accident. Twelve-year-old Lou and seven-year-old Oz survive, but
the crash leaves their father dead and their mother in a coma. It would seem
their world has been shattered forever until their great-grandmother, Louisa
Mae, agrees to raise the children on her Virginia mountain farm.
But before long their rural idyll is threatened by the discovery of natural gas
on the mountain. Determined to protect her home from the ravages of big
business Louisa Mae refuses to sell, but when neighbours hear of the potential
wealth the company could bring they begin to turn against her. And now the
Cardinal family find themselves ensnared in another battle, to be played out in
a crowded Virginia courtroom: a battle for justice, for survival, and for the
right to stay together in the only place they know as home.
Filled with both rich humour and desperate poignancy Wish You Well is a tale of
family, faith, humanity and prejudice, set against the magical backdrop of the
Virginia high rock.
my comments.
I recommend everyone reads this book. It is a really good story that teaches
you a lot of life lessons such as money is not everything. I would highly
recommend this book and it is one that will stay with me for a long time.
5 out of 5.
