Wish You Well is a novel written by David Baldacci, a bestselling American novelist. First published in 2001, it follows precocious twelve-year old Louisa Mae Cardinal who lives in the hectic New York City of 1940 with her family. When tragedy strikes, Lou and her younger brother, Oz, must go with her invalid mother to live on their great grandmother's farm in the Virginia mountains. Suddenly Lou finds herself coming of age in a new landscape, making her first true friend, and experiencing adventures, tragic, comic and audacious. But the forces of greed and justice are about to clash over her new home... and as their struggle is played out in a crowded Virginia court-room, it will determine the future of two children, an entire town, and mountains they love.
