From the highly acclaimed author of GODS IN ALABAMA comes a dazzling tale of secrets and lies in the Deep South.
A feud that began the night a baby was stolen is escalating...
Nonny Frett understands the meanings of 'rock' and 'hard place'. She's got two men: her husband is easing out the back door and her best friend is laying siege to her heart in her front yard. She has a job that holds her in the city, and she's addicted to a little girl stuck deep in the country. And she has two families: the Fretts, who stole her and raised her right, and the Crabtrees, who lost her and can't forget they've been done wrong. Now a random act of violence is about to set the torch to a thirty-year-old stash of highly flammable secrets. This might be just what the town needs if only Nonny wasn't sitting in the middle of it...
