Silent Waters by Gloria Terry

A SOUTHERN DRAMA ABOUT FAMILY, LOSS, AND SECRETS THAT CAN’T STAY BURIED. Set in New Orleans during the final days before Hurricane Katrina, SILENT WATERS explores grief, redemption, generational wounds, faith, and the choices that shape our destinies. Odessa, the matriarch of this New Orleans family, wrestles with the ghosts of the past and possibilities of the future. The memory of Jimmy Sr., her husband, reminds her of a dark secret about their family restaurant while her children each grasp for a new life outside of the family. All while the terrible storm of Hurricane Katrina begins to rage.
