Kathleen Kent recommends
Sweet Vidalia (2024)
Lisa Sandlin
"Poignant and uplifting, Sweet Vidalia is a beautifully written tribute to the courage of a woman wounded by life who, through steadfast determination, reclaims her self-esteem, and the joy of living."
Hollow Out the Dark (2024)
James Wade
"James Wade's newest novel, Hollow Out the Dark, is a masterpiece of atmospheric crime fiction; a worthy successor to the likes of William Gay and Cormac McCarthy. Set in East Texas, it is an epic, and age-old, story of greed and generational betrayal--where vengeance is swift and forgiveness a long time coming."
Something Bad Wrong (2023)
(Jess Keeler, book 1)
Eryk Pruitt
"In the tradition of the best of Southern Gothic crime fiction, Eryk Pruitt's Something Bad Wrong explores the dark and twisted psychology of madness, murder and ultimate revenge, where a true-crime podcaster and disgraced celebrity reporter work tirelessly to find answers to an unsolved murder nearly half a century old. Suspenseful and finely crafted, epic in scope and cinematic in its descriptions of time and place, the novel is a whirlwind of unexpected plot turns and surprising character reveals."
