Don't Let the Wind Catch You

When
young Gus LeGarde befriends Tully, a cranky old hermit in the woods who speaks
to an Indian spirit, he wonders if the man is nuts. But when the spirit rattles
tin cups, draws on dusty mirrors, and flips book pages, pestering him to find
evidence to avenge her past, things change fast. What Gus doesn’t understand is
why his mother hates Tully and forbids him to see the old man. What could Tully
have possibly done to earn this distrust?

 

Faced
with long-buried family secrets and danger, Gus summons courage beyond his years
in this poignant and powerful telling of the sultry summer of 1965.
