The Language of Trees (Book 3 of 3: The Daybreak Series) by Steve Wiegenstein - Paperback
The inhabitants of Daybreak, a quiet 19th-century utopian community, are courted by a powerful lumber and mining trust and must search their souls as the lure of sudden wealth tests ideals that to some now seem antique. And the courtship isn't just financial. Love, lust, deception, ambition, violence, repentance, and reconciliation abound as the citizens of Daybreak try to live out oft-scorned values in a world that is changing around them with terrifying speed. Winner of the Walter Williams Major Work Award from the Missouri Writers Guild.
