PRAISE FOR THE SOUND OF WINGS:

“Vividly written, with characters the reader will come to love as friends, The Sound of Wings is a compelling debut novel of great emotional depth. Highly recommended!"—Loretta Nyhan, author of The Other Family, Digging In, All the Good Parts

"Gardens are home to many things--plants, winged visitors, secrets, and sorrows. In The Sound of Wings, Suzanne Simonetti weaves a story of memories that float on the garden air, of people who carry the past with them, who struggle with the pull of memories and the wish to move on from them. She has created a small-town life and a cast of characters that will stay with the
reader long after the last page is read."
—Patti Davis, author of The Earth Breaks in Colors, The Wrong Side of Night

“A lyrical debut reminding us behind every polished exterior, there can be secrets and hidden truths. The women at the heart of this story transform as they battle demons from the ones existing in real life to the ones they carry within. Through the passages of time and self-discovery, they form an unlikely alliance bringing them to a place of healing and growth.”—Tammy Hetrick, author of Stella Rose

“Their stories all seem so separate, and yet there are ties that bind even they can’t fathom. When everything comes to the surface, it is with a heavy heart, but perfect understanding that we see the bigger picture, and hear the beauty of those wondrous wings.”—Satisfaction for an Insatiable Reader


“You don’t want to miss this heartfelt tale of love, sacrifice, and friendship. Beautifully written! Put it on your list today.”—Gina Heron, author of Buried Beneath the Lies

 

“A story world so completely alive with the characters so real, I can feel them breathing behind me.”—Caroline Leavitt, New York Times and USA TODAY best-selling author of With or Without You, Cruel Beautiful World, Is This Tomorrow, Pictures of You

“Suzanne Simonetti has woven a tale of wonder and surprises. As the lives of her characters intertwine, secrets are shared and answers are revealed. Reminiscent of Alice Hoffman in its elegant unfolding, the sheer magic of its storytelling, this is a novel that will wrap you in its mystery and beauty.”—Mary Morris, award-winning author of All the Way to the Tigers, Gateway To The Moon, and The Jazz Palace

"Simonetti’s stirring novel excels at creating characters that are fully fleshed out and deeply committed to their artistic careers and their interpersonal relationships. The three principal characters are thoughtful and conscientious, and the deep dives into their thoughts and memories give sharp illustrations of their motivations and fears up to the touching conclusion.”—Kirkus Reviews

ABOUT THE SOUND OF WINGS:

Set in picturesque Cape May, New Jersey, THE SOUND OF WINGS weaves together the story of three women whose lives are upended, and then intertwine: seventy-year-old, Goldie, whose pottery shop is failing and who is haunted by her deceased husband; newcomer Krystal, with the flashy new mansion but no friends; and Jocelyn, a distracted writer about to miss a deadline due to a custody battle. In THE SOUND OF WINGS, Simonetti gives readers a gripping, touching, and memorable portrait of women rising above painful pasts to seize present opportunities and of friendships that grow, despite differences, to sustain and inspire.
