Although this book was not as good as Bootlegger's Daughter, Maron still paints the southern setting perfectly. Her descriptions of the North Carolina flora and fauna are vivid, and she recreates the southern idiom with flair. Maron is a very talented writer, and her characters stay with you because they are so real. For questions or comments about a review, please contact the person listed at the top of the review.
