SUNSHINE by Ben Solomon

Detroit, 1970. The city is still smoldering from two years of unrest, and Georgia May Wilson has one night to decide whether to stay and fight for the life she built - or take her fourteen-year-old daughter, Sunshine, and run toward a promise made on a train platform years before. What follows is a sweeping journey across a divided America, told with the intimacy of letters kept in an apron pocket and the scope of a nation at war with itself.

• A mother-daughter journey across a fractured America - from the ashes of Detroit to a cross-country Greyhound odyssey to the golden shores of Malibu, tracing one family's fight to outrun history and claim a future.
• A forbidden love tested by war and prejudice - Georgia and her husband Tom's interracial marriage collides with a country not ready for them, told through wartime letters, long separations, and an unbroken promise: I will come back to you.
• Rich, character-driven historical fiction - spanning the 1968 uprisings, the Vietnam draft, and the civil rights era, grounded in the lived textures of family, faith, and survival rather than headlines alone.
• A daughter's coming-of-age in the sun - Sunshine grows up between two worlds, navigating identity, first love, and belonging as her family rebuilds itself in Southern California.
• A multigenerational story of resilience and reconciliation - told in full circle through 24 chapters and an epilogue, ending not in tragedy but in hard-won, ordinary peace: a garden, a porch, a family finally at rest.

Some places carry ash. Some carry ashes into light. Sunshine is the story of a family who walked from one into the other - and never stopped believing the walk was worth it.
