It all comes from the root… and Grover McQuiston was the root of it all.

Working his lifetime to bury a shameful past, Grover McQuiston rules the rural town of Moonsock, Tennessee and his family with an iron fist. Or he did, until his granddaughter scandalizes the small town with her queer behavior. Before Grover can force Sarah Jane to marry, strung-out punk rocker Slade Mortimer crash lands in Moonsock, claiming to be Grover’s long-lost grandson. When Slade’s presence threatens to reveal the devastating secret Grover will do anything to protect, it seems things couldn’t get any worse. Then Grover’s wife dies and in those flat delta fields, Grover learns nothing, absolutely nothing stays buried forever.

Sweeping from the grime of the 1970s New York punk rock scene to the truck-scarred roads of the rural South, Rooted is an evocative, wry and beautifully-written historical fiction novel that captures the grit of Southern storytelling at its finest.
