The Homecoming of Samuel Lake ~ by Jenny Wingfield, 2011, fiction (Arkansas) John Moses couldn't have chosen a worse day, or a worse way to die, if he'd planned it for a lifetime. Which was possible. HE/ was contrary as a mule. It was the weekend of the Moses family reunion, and everything was perfect — at least perfectly normal — until John went and ruined it.How could anyone not wonder what comes next? I have to find out how he died and how it mattered to the narrator, whoever that may be. My problem is that, since it's a new book due back at the library in seven days, I should hurry and read it — but I'm also trying to write at least 1,667 words a day on a novel for NaNoWriMo. In other words, my attention is divided. What to do, what to do, what to do?
By the way, I gave a synopsis of the book in a recent library loot post.

I love that John is being blamed for his own death as if he did it to control the family reunion! Sounds like a fun read
