copy of HOW SWEET THE SOUND with a pecan sampler just like
the ones they grow in Bay Spring, Alabama!.
From a distance, the Harlans appear to be
the perfect
Southern family. Wealth and local fame mask the drama and
dysfunction swirling through their family line. But as the
summer heats up, a flood tide of long hidden secrets
surface.
Devastation from a rape followed by the
murder of two
family members brings three generations of the Harlans
together on their pecan plantation in Bay Spring, Alabama.
Chief among them is Anniston, who by the time she turned
thirteen thought she’d seen it all. But as her heart
awakens to the possibility of love, she begins to deal with
her loneliness and grief.
This tender coming-of-age
tale, inspired by the story of
Tamar in 2 Samuel 13, shows how true healing and hope comes
only from God. Though our earthly family can wound and
disappoint, our heavenly Father brings freedom to those
long held captive through His mercy and grace.
