PRAISE FOR THE REBEL WIFE

O Magazine in their February 2012 issue picks The Rebel Wife as one of “Ten Titles to Pick Up Now.” They say, “This engrossing novel about a resilient heroine in the post-Civil War South has all the drama of the era and none of the clichés.”

“A richly detailed portrait of Reconstruction-era Alabama. . . . Nimble, engrossing . . . builds to a vivid climax.”
—Publishers Weekly

“The suspense is exquisitely honed . . . pulled back just in time to make for a wonderfully chilling—yet over-heated—read.”
—Booklist

About the book

Brimming with atmosphere and edgy suspense, The Rebel Wife presents a young widow trying to survive in the violent world of Reconstruction Alabama, where the old gentility masks a continuing war fueled by hatred, treachery, and still-powerful secrets. The Rebel Wife shatters the myths that still cling to the antebellum South and creates an unforgettable heroine for our time.
