Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Introduction to The Last Rice Planter By Jon Wongrey The Last Rice Planter begins as the cessation of hostilities between the North and South comes to its end at the McLean home in Appomattox, Virginia, on April 9, 1865 with General Lee's surrender of the Army of Northern Virginias to General Grant's Union Army. There to witness the terminus of Southern Independence was now ex-confederate Sergeant Major Jasper Webb who, with a final salute to General Lee, begins his long journey to his home state of South Carolina to his family's generations old Webb's Bluff Plantation. A rice plantation on the South Santee River in a region along the coast known as the Low Country where for over 200 years rice was cultivated and became known as Carolina Gold with its pearl-colored grain dominating the world's rice market for as many years. This came to an end during the Union's blockade prohibiting the Low Country rice planters form shipping rice to their foreign markets. Then came the hordes of invading soldiers, and like locusts, they struck the land and its people with a vengeance in compliance with Abraham Lincoln's policy to punish those southern states in revolt to the Union. Yet amid war's destruction, mobocracy, Union law, deceit, and murder, Jasper is determined again to plant rice and re-establish Carolina Gold as a world market in a time when the lamp of day did not rise over a land once known as the Flower of the South.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. An edgy and engrossing listen from the author of Josie and Jack. Twenty-something drifter Miranda crashes her car late at night on a lonely highway and is picked up by a passing stranger who soon reveals himself to be more sinister than at first glance. No one knows Miranda is missing: her father died in a plane crash over Central America and her estranged mother, Anne, sought comfort in a New Age lifestyle in the Arizona desert. When Anne reaches out to her daughter, no one has heard from Miranda for two months. All signs seem to point to Miranda's death, but she's actually living under an assumed name in a Virginia beach town and may not want to be found. Maybe George, her highway rescuer, means nothing by his unexpected appearances and is unconnected to rumors of a serial killer stalking young women. Maybe her mother will find her in time. Maybe not. Last Seen Leaving explores the often ambiguous nature of danger and the dark secrets we keep in order to protect those we love.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. When a young woman finds herself lost and at a crossroads, one last gift from her brother just might give her another chance at life and at love in this epic holiday romance from the author of Always, in December Sometimes the best gifts in life are the ones you don't expect. Cassie and Tom lost their parents at a young age and relied on each other--as well as a community of friends--to cope. They were especially close with Tom's best friend, Sam, who always made sure that Tom and Cassie were surrounded with love. But, twenty years later, Cassie has lost Tom as well. And in a way, she's also lost Sam; over the years they'd drifted apart, and now the man she always had a crush on is someone she doesn't even recognize anymore. She's never felt more alone. Then Cassie finds an envelope with her name on it, written in Tom's terrible handwriting, and she knows immediately what it is. It's the first clue in the Christmas scavenger hunt that Tom made for her every year; he'd promised her for months that this year's would be the grandest one yet. At first, she's too scared to open the envelope--what if she can't figure out the clues without his help? Or what if she does figure them all out and her last connection to Tom is gone? Tom's present sets Cassie on a heart-wrenching and beautiful journey that will change her life--if she lets it. And as she travels from London to the Welsh mountains to the French countryside, she reconnects with old friends, rekindles a lost love, and, most important, rediscovers herself. But once she's solved the final clue, will she be brave enough to accept the gift her brother has given her--and the love it's led her to.…
