Hoping to start anew, Thea's father moves the family to Bloodless Valley in southern Colorado. But the rivers are drying up, the crops are dying, and the black snowstorms are returning. Thea feels like her life has stalled: she's forbidden from going to school, borrowing books from the library, or corresponding with old friends.
But the family needs money, so Thea works at a town café. There, she meets Ray, a deaf man.

Born hard of hearing, Thea's parents always forced her to pretend to be hearing. But now, as Ray secretly teaches her sign language, she realizes what she's been missing—not just a new language, but an entire community and maybe even a chance at love.

"Black Snowstorm" is a troubling yet fragile coming-of-age novel in which a hearing-impaired teenager questions everything she knows about family, love, and her future.
