About author(s): Karen Hugg is the author of The Forgetting Flower and Song of the Tree Hollow.
Harvesting the Sky is the second book in the Botanique Noire series which combines vivid literary prose and a thriller plot, while enticing readers with the wonder and magic of plants.
So with the help of his new friend Renia ( The Forgetting Flower ) and her street smarts, he works to outmaneuver his enemy while uncovering a larger, more dangerous plot that threatens the foundation of all that Andre holds dear, including the woman he secretly loves.
Andre doesn\'t understand why anyone would do this, but he wonders if it\'s related to a project from his past that went all wrong and resulted in a deadly mistake.
But a mysterious stranger constantly thwarts Andre\'s work, sending harassing calls and menacing effigies, stalking Andre, and vandalizing his trees.
Growing the cuttings into trees is personal for Andre since the apples can heal people with serious illnesses, like his sweet mother who\'s suffered a stroke.
