Where the Trees Were - Inga Simpson
Finding those carved trees forged a bond between Jay and her four childhood friends and opened their eyes to a wider world. But their attempt to protect the grove ends in disaster, and that one day on the river changes their lives forever. Not every wrong can be put right, but sometimes looking the other way is no longer an option.
