He enlists her to keep it their secret even though a man died in the fire. The twelve year old is left to bear the burden alone when her father abandons the family.Hoping to heal the wounds she reaches out to Traci daughter of the man killed in the fire. They bond as children and later as young professionals building careers in Boston. When Traci begins a search into the cause of her fathers death the two women find themselves in conflict. Leeann is faced with revealing the truth about the fire and her part in the deception an admission that will set her and Traci free but the cost may be too great.A REVIEW....Readers of womens fiction will receive a treat with Christine Melchiors Bright a story that opens in 1983 in Massachusetts where twelve-year-old Leeann Bright observes a fire and her father running from it. Fast forward to 1998. Leeann works in a Boston high-rise and faces the lingering aftereffects of her fathers involvement in the blaze when new information breaks open the arson case.As the timeline fluctuates between the 80s and Leeanns coming of age and new adult challenges readers receive an engrossing story of the impact of adult decisions on a childs psyche and its reemergence in adulthood. Bright is highly recommended as a coming-of-age story of moral and ethical struggle and growth and is a riveting inspection of intention and consequences. -Diane Donovan Senior Reviewer Midwest Book Review
