Sovereign: The Old Pool

Some places remember you.
Some places introduce you to yourself.

At the eastern edge of the Hilltop, a small California river winds through sycamores, stone and summer light.

Belladonna knows the old swimming place.

Or she thinks she does.

Then one afternoon something disappears beneath the water. No animal. No explanation. Only rings.

And so begins Sovereign, a Story from the Hilltop about Belladonna, East Water, a wild river otter and the strange things we begin to understand when we stop insisting that everything reveal itself at once.

Part storybook, part field journal, Sovereign invites readers into a living landscape where observation matters, questions are allowed to remain questions, and wild things remain wild.
