A River of Memory

Cover of a book titled 'A River of Memory' by Peter Sarno. The cover features a silhouette of a woman standing on a dock observing a broken wooden bridge over a river at dusk, with a partly cloudy sky in the background.

For twenty-three years, "Morning Ray" Ferguson's grandfather was her anchor. Now he's gone, and the past he protected her from is rushing back in a torrent of splintered memories: a volatile father, a silent mother, and the decaying New England mill town that holds all their secrets.

As she navigates her grief, Morning Ray finds herself caught between two men—and two futures. There's Kent, her steady, reliable boyfriend, who offers a safe harbor. And then there's Tony, the enigmatic widower next door who awakens a passion she never knew she possessed. But as a web of long-buried secrets begins to unravel, she learns that the loving walls built to keep her safe have also been a cage.

To find her future, she must first face the ghosts of her past in this powerful, poignant story of family, forgiveness, and the winding river of memory.
