About this product

Product Information

A woman is forced to face her past in a heartbreaking and triumphant novel of old wounds and family secrets by award-winning author Joy Castro. Isabel Morales is a successful Chicago sculptor hiding a brutal family history--one not even her husband knows. After decades of turning her back on her past, she's forced to return to Appalachia when she receives news of her estranged mother's death. But going back means revisiting the traumatic childhood she escaped--and the family that cast her out when she needed them most. Back on the land she has inherited, she's flooded with memories of the forest where she once roamed free, of her beloved lost brother, and of the old house in the West Virginia hills where she grew up. Her mother has left her another legacy, too, which reveals secrets that Isabel is only beginning to understand. As forces bear down and threaten to take what she has left, it's time for Isabel to step into her power, reclaim her roots, and finally confront the painful memories that have kept her from the life she truly wants.

Reviews
"Joy Castro's writing is like watching an Acapulco cliff diver. It takes my breath away every time." --Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street "Funny, sexy, and transfixing, Joy Castro's Flight Risk is a meditation on love, marriage, art, family, womanhood--and therefore, life itself. Castro skillfully builds tension, and the slow intensity with which the plot's arc forms gives the novel its exquisite and powerful impact." --Chigozie Obioma, author of the Booker-short-listed novel An Orchestra of Minorities "Completely captivating. Part Patricia Highsmith, part Mexican Gothic , part Daphne du Maurier, Joy Castro's Flight Risk is my favorite kind of story: one in which an outsider, dodging and weaving among insiders, stirs up tension, intrigue, and suspicion. With raw energy and sharp storytelling, Flight Risk is a novel about light and shadow, and I found myself craving its every twist." --Timothy Schaffert, author of The Perfume Thief "From the stunning opening lines of Joy Castro's Flight Risk , we know we're in the hands of a master storyteller, and it held me captive until the final page. With writing so evocative I could taste her words, Castro has wrought a sharply observed love story with a social conscience--an investigation of class, family, and the many ways we get each other wrong." --Jennifer Steil, author of Exile Music " Flight Risk is a compelling, gritty portrait of class in America. Joy Castro traffics the rural-urban divide with complexity and compassion. The protagonist, Isabel Morales, an outsider turned artist, guides the reader through poverty, wealth, and the beating heart of our political divide as she reclaims her roots in coal-country West Virginia while reconciling the privileged life she's built in Chicago. This is outlaw fiction at its best." --Melissa Scholes Young, author of The Hive "A deftly intelligent literary thriller, Flight Risk is that rarest of beasts--beautifully written yet a real page-turner, too. Wonderful." --S. J. Watson, author of the international bestseller Before I Go to Sleep

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
