It May Not Leave a Scar

Milam McGraw Propst

Milam McGraw Propst, author of the prize-winning A Flower Blooms on Charlotte Street, offers a second work entitled It May Not Leave a Scar. While her new novel is a departure from the sweet-spirited narrative of her grandmother’s coming of age, Propst again writes about the triumph of the human spirit. It May Not Leave a Scar is a heartrending journey which takes the reader from tragedy and desperation to understanding, forgiveness, and redemption.

It was 1932 on a warm June afternoon in Memphis, Tennessee. A single shot was fired. As a result, three, almost four generations of the Eugene Sinclair family were twisted together in a web of secrets and deception. For the next sixty years, far too many skeletons crowd the Sinclair family closet. Those same skeletons churn and rumble behind the closet’s bolted door until, one by one, they begin to break free. In untangling the long-guarded family secrets, Sister, the youngest of the Sinclair women, will find her own peace in the cleansing air of truth. Resting in that peace, Sister not only realizes she is free, but more importantly, she also discovers that she has learned to forgive.

Milam McGraw Propst’s first novel, A Flower Blooms on Charlotte Street, was awarded the Parent’s Choice Award, and she was named Georgia Author of the Year in 2000. She has published numerous articles in Georgia Journal, Caring Magazine, Birmingham Magazine, and the Birmingham News.
