A Woman is Missing But No One Seems to Care
What if you felt like an outsider in your own family? What if, when you needed her most, your most trusted ally just disappeared? What if, in protecting yourself, you uncovered more than you ever wanted to know?
Kaffy Sullivan, ornery in midlife, expects to inherit Sullivan House, a lovely old inn perched next to a magnificent forest. But if Kaffy hopes to live the rest of her life on the earnings from her grandparents’ legacy, she needs to steer the inn into the 21st century, and prevent her siblings from staking their claim.
A prestigious reviewer from The Lonely Tripper books a reservation—a review that could make or break the inn’s reputation. But on the very same morning, Kaffy’s right-hand woman doesn’t show up for work. Kaffy relies on Sylvia for everything from home-cooked chicken dinners on Saturday nights, to lively conversation with the guests on the porch—a skill that eludes the thorny innkeeper, Kaffy.
How can she possibly get Sullivan House ready in time by herself?
Where is Sylvia?
As time ticks by, Kaffy realizes she’s the only one asking. Even Sylvia’s husband, Kaffy’s twisted brother Red, doesn’t seem to care that his wife has disappeared. But he sure seems concerned about the upcoming reading of Gran’s will and the settlement of the estate.
Where is Sylvia?
Disturbed by Red’s sly retorts about the future of the inn and his indifference to his wife’s whereabouts, Kaffy struggles to cope with her odious brother. Pushed on by the impending review, not to mention the reading of the will, Kaffy embarks on an erratic search for Sylvia, while Red’s obstruction worsens increasingly.
Kaffy’s never trusted her brother. Why should she start now?
As she hurtles down a road of buried discoveries, Kaffy tries frantically to get her life under control.
Where is Sylvia?
Can Kaffy find her before the world flies apart?
Birds Don’t Cry is a psychological story of betrayal, sibling rivalry, and buried memories. A page turner that drops you directly into one dysfunctional family’s conflict and search for survivors.
Are there events we choose not to remember or are some memories too awful to contemplate?
Can we ever mend broken relationships with our siblings?
