Review:
Four young people come of age in small-town Mississippi - the Judge's son Fletcher Greel falls for beautiful Haley who has two secrets that give her power but make her vulnerable whilst Riley loves Crystal, a black girl. And disapproval of this romance takes a violent turn and Haley's secrets surface with frightening results. Highly recommended.
From the Publisher:
In this sizzling Deep South debut novel, with echoes of Carson McCullers and Harper Lee, four young people come of age in small-town Mississippi where racial tension lies just below the surface – as does an unknown body in a shallow grave.
