Description
Set in the haunted backwaters of the Mississippi Delta, this atmospheric Southern Gothic follows Miranda Crabtree, a fiercely independent young woman whose isolated life is upended by violence, buried secrets, and forces that seem to defy the natural world. As threats close in around her, Miranda must draw on courage, loyalty, and an intimate knowledge of the swamp to protect the fragile home she has inherited. Blending horror, folklore, and supernatural mystery, the novel explores survival, grief, family, and the enduring power of place. Andy Davidson’s evocative prose creates a menacing, dreamlike landscape where beauty and brutality exist side by side.
