Starting March 27 the kindle version of my novel, "Motherless Children" will be on sale for $0.99 for a week.
The decline of a grand Southern family forms the backdrop of a rich, complicated mystery. In 1946, Sam Swain, Chief of Police of Williams Point, investigates the murders of Adelia Southworth and her niece, Madeleine. The plot unfolds over a hot, nervous week, but the author, in absolute control of the material, weaves a nearly fifty-year family saga into the narrative. The vivid language elevates the story, and the solution to the mystery ends up both unexpected and satisfying.
