Conflicts in a small Southern town bubble to the surface in this tale of repression and prophecy, the second book in The Jexville Chronicles trilogy. Sixteen-year-old Mattie comes to Mississippi in the summer of 1926 as a mail-order bride and finds a quiet, deeply religious community wrapped in rigid views of a woman's proper role. When Duncan McVay, the nine-year-old daughter of Jexville's most controversial woman, is struck by lightning while dancing, the townspeople are horrified when she doesn't die but survives-and is given the gift of prophecy. Abused and mistreated by her handsome husband, Mattie defends Duncan. She finds comfort in her friendship with JoHanna and the McVay family, but defying the town has consequences. When a hurricane lashes the area, the townspeople blame Duncan. Action leads to tragedy. For both Mattie and Johanna, the future holds heartache, but ultimately a long-awaited and stunningly executed revenge.mehr

Autor

Carolyn Haines is the USA Today bestselling author of over 80 books in a number of genres. A native of Lucedale, Mississippi, she grew up reading anything she could get her hands on and developed a love of mysteries, crime novels, general fiction, gothics, short fiction, and horror. For 14 years she headed the fiction department at the University of South Alabama and has been rewarded to see a number of her students publish and do well. Haines is a passionate advocate for animals and the planet and runs a very small animal rescue at her farm where she cares for dogs, cats, and horses. Growing up on ghost stories told by her grandmother and parents, she loves to give her readers "a little chill."
