The Stand Tall series published three books in 2018 and 2019, each named for a season and a stage of life. The Fourth Summer, The Last Snowfall, and Autumn’s Child follow connected characters as they face the kinds of turning points that reshape families and relationships.
Seidel’s late-career work shows a writer confident in her ability to handle complex emotions without melodrama. The seasonal titles reflect the books’ interest in time passing and the choices people make at different points in their lives.
