Coyote Summer

Coyote Summer is HERE!

Heath always looked forward to summer visits at Grandpa’s—long days in the wild Rocky Mountains, fishing with Dad on the Piedra River, and nights sleeping on the screened-in porch.  Plus this summer, Dad promised to finally tell him the secret about old Mrs. Baylis, a mysterious Native American woman living down the dusty dirt road…  But now, after Dad’s accident, it can never happen that way.  Heath and his mother go to Grandpa’s, but only to spread Dad’s ashes in the river.

In the beginning, Heath feels like he's been swallowed by the raging Piedra, held upside down in some dark and unforgiving eddy.  But one day, wandering along the riverbank, he meets Annie, a wild-eyed tomboy who shows him a hidden cave with a litter of orphaned coyote pups.  Together they discover the cave holds another secret—one that might help them figure out the mystery of old Mrs. Baylis.  During that summer in the mountains, Heath comes to realize there is both beauty and ugliness in the world, sometimes all tangled together.  By opening himself up to Annie and the coyotes, he rediscovers hope and joy in this big, beautiful, mixed-up world.
