Synopsis

"That woman is unstoppable. She's a force of nature."A retired school teacher, Lynn Peterson works alongside her husband Hank as a caretaker of a ranch in the hills of Sonoma County, California. One day, Lynn’s good friend Karen, a nurse at the local clinic, shows up at the ranch and asks Lynn for an extraordinary favor: to hide an undocumented female vineyard worker named Teresa Alvarez—who Karen has brought with her to the ranch—from Teresa’s abusive supervisor, Juan Carlos, who she was brutually raped by earlier that same night. Initially, Lynn has no intention of getting involved when asked to help shelter Teresa, then she decides she will—for just one night—as an act of loyalty and friendship.Yet Lynn becomes sympathetic to Teresa’s plight after hearing her story, and Lynn agrees to hide her at the ranch for as long as it takes to ensure Teresa is no longer in peril, and is settled in a new home, with a job that has decent prospects for the future. Once Lynn commits to her decision to help, though, she quickly finds herself embroiled in unexpected and dangerous consequences, and soon begins to fear for both Teresa’s life and her own. In Through the Grapevine, author David Hudson brings readers a complex and incredibly vivid novel rich in detail, that’s riveting from the very first page to the last—and at its core, exists as a moving, poignant story that stands as a testament to the human spirit.
