One of my favorite storytellers…. - Hollis George, noted editor and anthologist A raw novel written with the passion of memory and the experience of growing up in a beachside community on the northern corner of Florida. - Hayes Brandwell, The Polemicist Post As a former newspaper colleague of Bill Burkett, I can certify that there is truth in this well-crafted prose… - Pamela Paige, former feature writer, Florida Times-Union The time was 1959. Walter was a cook at Dawson’s Famous Seafood Restaurant supporting his tubercular wife in an inland sanatorium and their daughter, who lived with her mother’s parents. He was a loner who minded his own business until Corinne came to work as a waitress and he saw a chance to grab a little moment of happiness with her. But Corinne was a lodestone for dangerous men and he was on a collision course with disaster. A nearly lost masterpiece is discovered … modern Southern Gothic, says Shirrel Rhoades, former fiction editor for The Saturday Evening Post.
