Confluence - Paperback

by Mary Elizabeth Gillilan (Author)

In Confluence, reclusive Maya Margarita Moore opens a forgotten suitcase in the attic of her La Conner, Washington house. Inside, a letter from her late mother begins, "Hello, from the other side of the urn." The letter reveals that her father may be alive and living in a remote Himalayan community; her mother admonishes Maya to find him. With help from her friend, Jack, she receives an invitation from a father of whom she has no memory. Despite her doubts about her ability to travel at age sixty-five and being hindered by cerebral palsy, Maya decides to go on what becomes a transformative journey. Beyond the beyond.
