Ave Maria's world is rocked to its core, forcing her to face the past in order to build a new life. This is Trigiani at her best, a page turning story full of revelations, plot twists and characters we have come to embrace as family. Theodore Tipton, Iva Lou Makin, Fleeta Mullins, and Pearl Grimes are back, and so is Pete Rutledge, Jack Mac's unspoken rival for the heart of Ave Maria. Millions of readers around the world have followed Trigiani from the streets of Greenwich Village, to the farmland of Pennsylvania, and to the Jersey shore, and now, will take you home again, where it all began, in the mountains of southwest Virginia. Written with humor, emotion and power in Trigiani's trademark style, "Return to Big Stone Gap" is a true homecoming event.
