Staff Pick of the Week <\/strong>is \u201cThe Lost Girls\u201d by Heather Young. From the book jacket:<\/p>\n In the summer of 1935, six-year-old Emily Evans vanishes from her family\u2019s vacation home on a remote Minnesota lake. Her disappearance destroys her mother, who spends the rest of her life at the lake house, hoping in vain that her favorite daughter will walk out of the woods. Emily\u2019s two older sisters stay, too, each keeping her own private, decades-long vigil for the lost child.<\/em><\/p>\n \nSixty years later Lucy, the quiet and watchful middle sister, lives in the lake house alone. Before she dies, she writes the story of that devastating summer in a notebook that she leaves, along with the house, to the only person to whom it might matter: her grandniece, Justine.<\/em><\/p>\n For Justine, the lake house offers a chance to escape her manipulative boyfriend and give her daughters the stable home she never had. But it\u2019s not the sanctuary she hoped for. The long Minnesota winter has begun. The house is cold and dilapidated, the frozen lake is silent and forbidding, and her only neighbor is a strange old man who seems to know more than he\u2019s telling about the summer of 1935.<\/em><\/p>\n \nSoon Justine\u2019s troubled oldest daughter becomes obsessed with Emily\u2019s disappearance, her mother arrives with designs on her inheritance, and the man she left behind launches a dangerous plan to get her back. In a house steeped in the sorrows of the women who came before her, Justine must overcome their tragic legacy if she hopes to save herself and her children.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Our seed library is open for all to use.
