Book Synopsis
From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek, Kim Michele Richardson''s atmospheric, beautifully written debut transports readers to a time and place where the KKK is still a power, the South is struggling to find itself, women are exploring new freedom, and teenagers are caught between old and new ways of growing up. A story of first love, raw courage, and truths that won''t be denied, set against a Southern backdrop passing uneasily from bigotry and brutality to hope in 1970''s Kentucky.

In 1972, on Mudas Summers'' seventeenth birthday, her beloved Mama, Ella, is found hanging from the rafters of their home. Most people in Peckinpaw, Kentucky, assume that Ella''s no-good husband did the deed. Others think Ella grew tired of his abuse and did it herself. Muddy is determined to find out for sure either way, especially once she finds strange papers hidden amongst her mama''s possessions.
