Snow After Fire - Paperback

In November 2018, Kandi, already struggling with anxiety and chronic fatigue, faces her family's unthinkable losses after the Paradise Camp Fire. Her two sons and two granddaughters are immediately displaced when their homes are demolished, and they come to live with Kandi and her husband in their small cabin. As Kandi's solitude-seeking husband moves out and her energy wanes, she wonders how much of herself she can and should she give up for her family. When her family can finally move into temporary FEMA housing, hope flourishes, but as the months go by that hope comes and goes as Kandi faces illness, more fires, the COVID-19 pandemic, the loss of her parents, housing issues for herself and her family, and the prospect of being torn from her most cherished refuge-the forests and the wild lands she called home. Can Kandi persevere and find her calm snow after the fire?
