Description - Water Marked: A Novel by Helen Elaine Lee

Delta and Sunday Owens grew up believing that their father, Mercury, had committed suicide. Years later and long estranged from one another, the sisters are drawn together once again by the shocking discovery that Mercury had in fact lived a long life completely separate from theirs. Sunday, a painter in Chicago, returns to the hometown Delta has never left. Together they comb through mementos, trade stories and childhood memories, and talk to friends of their matriarchal grandmother, piecing together clues about their troubled mother and the father they never knew. As a new portrait of their family -- and their town -- emerges, Delta and Sunday find that facing the secrets of the past is the first step to repairing their tattered bonds of sisterhood.
