The Incident at New Procidence

Two sisters who had grown apart clash over race relations and small town politics that push old friendships to the edge and rip open long hidden family secrets. Terri, who escaped to Los Angeles years before, has returned to her Southern roots. Her return upsets a delicate balance in the community that had been crafted by her older sister, Grace, while her hidden motive for the return drives an even deeper wedge between them. The story illustrates the power of family secrets, the fragility of a community and the endurance of the human spirit.
