Sourland

"Sapphire and her farm, Sourland, are fixtures of Northern California's rugged wilderness, offering refuge to rejects, rebels, and outcasts--anyone willing to work and learn. But the haven Sapphire has built is fractured when she suddenly goes missing, her scorched truck abandoned on a mountain road. Frankie, a disgraced ballerina and Sapphire's former girlfriend and right-hand woman, returns to Sourland, claiming ownership of the farm. When she arrives, Frankie finds that Fizz--Sapphire's most recent lover, an ex-baseball player with a preternatural green thumb--has already begun prepping Sourland for its biggest harvest yet. As the two grapple for power, the farm's fate hangs in the balance, and with it, the future Fizz and Frankie each covet for themselves. Past demons and scorned admirers remain hauntingly close, while the specter of Sapphire looms over the farm"--Flap page 1 of dust jacket.
