Here’s the set-up:
In the summer of 1962, at a high school graduation party, Bessie Day Hardy is brutally raped. Fifty years later, the consequences of that horrific night will transition into unforeseen events that will shatter her serene and uncomplicated life.

What fans are saying:

Through an intricate weaving of characters, a dramatic event, and fresh information, Vera Jane Cook constructs Lies a River Deep. Bessie Day Hardy has tried to put the awful night she was viciously raped behind her, but fifty years later news surfaces that bring back a flood of memories. As the story swings back in time, the reader sees a simpler time when life was black and white. You don’t talk about many things, being a rape victim was a taboo. The story swings back to present time and you see how life has changed in fifty years.

Lies a River Deep by Vera Jane Cook is an eye opener for long term damage done to people who are raped. It was interesting to see Bessie Day Hardy’s input from when she was a teenager and then again fifty years later. This story starts slow, but picks up quickly halfway through. This novel will affect you; parts are emotional and other parts will make you question humanity. The insight from the cat, Spider, is a cute touch. – Amazon Review

Here’s the set-up:

After thirteen years on the run Violet McLaughlin returns to Carter’s Crossing, South Carolina, in 1962, with her young daughter, Sassy. The Crossing is right outside of Beaufort and the turmoil of the Civil Rights movement will forever leave its scars on the young and impressionable girl.

As Sassy stands before the imposing white farmhouse for the first time, with no knowledge of her history but that the McLaughlin’s are her kin, Sassy begins a journey that will tear her apart before it heals her.

Growing up among secrets that will forever damage her relationship with her mother, she attempts to make sense of her past. But will her passion for art and her love for Thomas Tierney be enough to sustain her future?

Will the journey she must take to discover the truth be worth it?

“I’ve been really lucky to find such good books to read lately, and this is one of those books.

This is a tale woven so carefully, so intricately and so completely, that there isn’t a gap or a question as to what just happened or an unsatisfying moment in this story. This story flows along effortlessly. What a joy!

Sassy has the weight of the world on her shoulders nearly every day of her life, but she doesn’t have to bear it alone. Her blessed Grandma Edna, her friend Dudley and later her son, Patrick Toulouse, among many others, are there to help her along. In between, there are characters you love to love and some you love to loathe. All are important and all of them add, rather than detract, from the story. There isn’t a wasted word or scene in this book.” – Amazon Review

“Absolutely unputdownable, a real page turner. Be prepared to clear your schedule for the day.” —Wall to Wall Books

In the town of Hollow Creek, South Carolina two separate murders, fifteen years apart, unite fifteen-year-old Pleasant Day and sixty-year-old Clarissa Blackwell. As Pleasant struggles with her mother’s distance, her father’s infidelity and the death of her best friend, she draws closer to Clarissa, an older woman with an uncanny, almost psychic, ability to ‘read people.’

As Clarissa uncovers the stories behind the murders, both Pleasant and Clarissa’s worlds are transformed by the truths they’re forced to accept, and both find solace and strength in the shared histories that have shaped them.
