WOW! WHAT A SURPRISE NOT WHAT I EXPECTED, THIS WAS REALLY, REALLY GOOD. I LOVE READING ABOUT LIFE IN A SMALL TOWN, ESPECIALLY A SOUTHERN ONE. THIS REMINDED ME OF PEYTON PLACE MEETS WALLING TALL. TAKES PLACE BACK IN THE 60's IN HAMPTON, ALABAMA, A SMALL RURAL TOWN FILLED WITH MORE THAN YOU'D EVER FIND IN BIG CITY LIFE. IT HAS FORBIDDEN LOVE/LUST, RAPE, MURDER, RACISM, RELIGIOUS FANATICS, CORRUPTION SECRETS, LIES, SEX, ABUSE, RETRIBRIUTION AND A WHOLE LOT MORE. I MEAN THIS PLACE IS UNBELIEVABLY, BELIEVABLE THIS TAKES PLACE PRIOR TO REALITY TV AND JERRY SPRINGER WERE EVER THOUGHT ABOUT. THIS WAS WHEN PEOPLE STILL HAD A PARTY LINE(I remember those days) YOU COULD LISTEN IN ON YOUR NEIGHBORS PHONE COVERSATIONS CAUSE WHOLE STREETS WERE ALL CONNECTED. LOL WHAT A HOOT! THIS WAS GREAT, I'M GONNA CHECK OUT SOME MORE OF MS. HAGAN'S BOOKS SHE CAN REALLY WRITE, LOVED THE STORY LINE. ;D
