Family means everything to widowed Alaskan fisherman Ray Bancroft, raising his granddaughter with help from a multitude of gods and goddesses — not to mention rituals ad-libbed at sea by his half-Tlingit best friend. But statues and otter bone ceremonies aren't enough when Ray's estranged daughter returns from prison. Set against a backdrop of ice and mud and loss, Dan Berne's gripping debut novel, The Gods of Second Chances (Forest Avenue Press), explores the unpredictable fissures of memory, and how families can break apart even in the midst of healing.
