What makes Lineage unique

Lineage is a sweeping, multi-generational story of three women breaking barriers in different eras, bound by a Cape Cod home that holds their legacy. I wrote it to honor the way family stories ripple through time—how much of who we are comes from those who came before us, and how love and resilience endure across generations.

How it compares to other stories

If you enjoy the layered historical mystery of Kate Morton, the emotional resonance of Kristin Hannah, or the intimate portraits of Elizabeth Strout, you’ll find echoes of all three in Lineage. Like them, I’ve woven past and present together, but with a unique twist: a single seaside home that becomes both anchor and witness to a family’s greatest struggles and triumphs.
