The Blurb:
Here is a gorgeous, slow-burning story of family love and misunderstandings, of resentments harboured and driven underground. Set in the rough-hewn heart of the Canadian Shield, Crow Lake brings us into the fold of the Morrisons, a family bound close by unexpected loss. Young Kate Morrison worships her elder brother Matt, whose passionate interest in the natural world inspires Kate to become a biologist. But as an adult she feels estranged from her siblings - Matt, Luke and Bo - who once composed her entire world, and she can't reconcile the heroic brother of her youth with the all-too-human man he has become.
In this internationally acclaimed drama, Lawson ratchets up the tension, paying out her story with heartbreaking humour and consummate control, overturning one's expectations to the end.
