Where The Dead Sit Talking

A spare, lyrical Native American coming of age story set in rural Oklahoma in the late 1980s. Sequoyah, a fifteen-year-old Cherokee boy, is placed in foster care with the Troutt family. Literally and figuratively scarred by his mother''s years of substance abuse, Sequoyah keeps mostly to himself, living with his emotions pressed deep below the surface. At least until he meets seventeen-year-old Rosemary. Sequoyah and Rosemary bond over their shared Native American background and tumultuous paths through the foster care system, but as Sequoyah''s feelings toward Rosemary deepen, the precariousness of their lives and the scars of their pasts threaten to undo them both.
