The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters

Set in the 1960s, the story follows the lives of a Mi'kmaq family from Nova Scotia who travel to Maine each summer to pick blueberries. When a young girl from the family goes missing, the event profoundly impacts both her family and a local Maine family. The narrative explores themes of loss, identity, and the enduring bonds of family, weaving together the perspectives of those affected by the disappearance over several decades. As the characters grapple with their past and search for closure, the story delves into the complexities of cultural heritage and the resilience of the human spirit.
