📖 About this Book
In the summer of 1962, a Mi’kmaq family travels from Nova Scotia to Maine to work in the blueberry fields. When four-year-old Ruthie suddenly disappears, her brother Joe is left carrying the guilt and grief of being the last person to see her.
Meanwhile, a girl named Norma grows up in an affluent Maine family, troubled by strange memories, unanswered questions, and the feeling that something about her childhood has been hidden from her. Told across decades, The Berry Pickers is a moving story of family, identity, loss, buried secrets, and the enduring search for truth.
