# Lookout - Hardcover

by **Christine Byl** (Author)

**_Lookout_ tells the story of the Kinzlers, a complex working-class family firmly rooted in northwestern Montana.**

Josiah and Margaret Kinzler have forged an unusual bond marked by both tenderness and distance; their daughters, Cody and Louisa, grow up watching their parents navigate what it means to be true to yourself and what that costs. Lookout offers a gripping dual coming-of-age: Cody's from stoic ranch kid to hotshot firefighter to resilient woman learning to rely on others, and Josiah's as he struggles to thrive in a world that has misunderstood him. Bound by their love of the land, the Kinzlers work to bridge the gaps created by what they leave unspoken. _Lookout_ brings to life a family coming out to itself, at home in a new and nuanced American West.
