Roseborough

In Roseborough, Jane Roberts Wood returns with a keenly observed tale of bighearted people in small-town Texas. Newly widowed Mary Lou, a Dairy Queen counter clerk, left with only her fourteen-year-old daughter, Echo, signs up for a single-parenting class when Echo runs away and wonÂ't return. Peopled by an extraordinary group and taught by Anne, the entire class soon becomes irrevocably enmeshed in Mary LouÂ's quest.

Roseborough exemplifies the miracle of recovery through the tincture of time, and shines as the perfect example of why “Wood and her books are Texas treasures to be especially cherished.” (Southwestern American Literature)
