"It's 1990 and seventeen-year-old Marley West is blazing into the river valley town of Mercury, Pennsylvania. A perpetual loner, she seeks a place at someone's table and a family of her own.

A secret is uncovered in a blue-collar town that tests a roofing family's loyalties.
Though the drama of MERCURY had mystery, romance, and coming-of-age mixed in, at its heart it was a character driven exploration of family dynamics in small-town 1990s. The characters were compelling. The plot was simple yet engaging due to the writing style.
When I first read the synopsis, I wasn't sure if this would be a book I'd like. I'm glad I gave it a chance as I did enjoy it.
