Synopsis

Isolated in a small community in 1950s West Virginia, Olivia knows her life will always be predictable and limited—being struck down with polio has assured that. But that was before a stranger walked into town. Jeb McDowell is a man with a tragic past who is faced with an even more tragic present. When he is murdered, the entire town becomes complicit in concealing an old crime. Olivia will need every bit of courage she can summon to face down the killer in her community, and bring an old injustice to light before she, too, sleeps the churchyard sleep. “A rich and loving portrait of a place and its colorful people. Rett MacPherson’s smart, curious heroine is a sharp and caustic observer of the sleepy mountain community that has formed her whole life—until a stranger comes to town and shows her how wide the world can be. Sleeping the Churchyard Sleep is steeped in a powerful sense of place and time as it explores the mystical pull of the past, the unbreakable bonds of family, and the tendency of secrets to come to light.” - Sharon Shinn, author of the Shifting Circle Series.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Rett MacPherson is the author of eleven Torie O'Shea books, pioneering the popular sub-genre of genealogical mysteries. In addition to writing, Rett is a bead and fabric artist and loves all kinds of fabric, laces, buttons, and beads. She loves to be outdoors and she likes to run, even though she's slow and has to ice her knees afterward. In addition to reading—sometimes reading as many as fifty books a year—she also loves genealogy and is descended from a long line of English lords, Irish rascals, Scottish highlanders, Viking marauders, and French vintners and horse breeders. If time-travel were possible, she'd like to visit all of her direct ancestors. She's obsessed with British television and loves almost all music. She lives in St. Louis with her family, where she can often be found practicing yoga...unless she's at the winery.
