The Sound of Glass
ByPublisher Description
The New York Times bestselling author of the Tradd Street novels explores a Southern family’s buried history, which will change the life of the woman who unearths it, secret by shattering secret.
Two years after the death of her husband, Merritt Heyward receives unexpected news—Cal’s family home in Beaufort, South Carolina, bequeathed by his reclusive grandmother, now belongs to Merritt.
In Beaufort, the secrets of Cal’s unspoken-of past reside among the pluff mud and jasmine of the ancestral Heyward home on the Bluff. This unknown legacy, now Merritt’s, will change and define her as she navigates her new life—a life complicated by the arrival of her too young stepmother and ten-year-old half brother.
Soon, in this house of strangers, Merritt is forced into unraveling the Heyward family past as she faces her own fears and finds the healing she needs in the salt air of the Lowcountry.

“One of the main characters let her life story take control of her life and become an unlikable character all while the others were so kind and forgiving to her. Her growth made you appreciate her and her story more.
It was slow paced at times but overall well written. The way she shows the true love of a mother is heartwarming and heartbreaking all at once. While it seems to be a romance and love of a family storyline I also loved that there was some suspense/thriller elements thrown in.”
