  • Feller: Poems
    By author: Denton Loving
    Using the natural world as both mirror and lens, the poems in Denton Loving's third full-length collection of poetry explore themes of connection, longing, and the pursuit of a fully lived life. At once deeply rooted in his Appalachian soil and universally resonant, FELLER confirms Loving's position among those rare poets who transmute a sense of place into profound human truth.
  • Haircuts for the Dead: A Novel
    By author: William Walsh
    When twenty-one-year-old Hannah Gardner's father sells the family farm, she is cast onto the streets of Sundown, Georgia, where, having left her fundamentalist church, she grapples with the weight of her family's racist past. Working as a shampoo girl at a rinky-dink salon, Hannah tries to make ends meet cutting hair at the local funeral home. HAIRCUTS FOR THE DEAD is a modern retelling of the Fall of Man in a small-town Peyton Place where Hannah is kicked out of Eden and forced to deal with race issues, her sexual identity, the burdens of her family's past, and challenges to her faith.
  • The Dawson Pond Murders: A John Wesley O’Toole Novel
    By author: William Rawlings
    For John Wesley O'Toole, a disbarred attorney-turned art dealer, life appears to be returning to a semblance of normal as his troubles fade into memory. Still in love with his girlfriend, Jenna, he hopes to help convince her he would be a good husband and stepfather by showing interest in her young son, Robert. O'Toole offers to take the boy fishing in Jenna's parents' pond, located on their small family farm in the countryside of rural south Georgia. All goes well until Robert's lure gets hung on what initially appears to be a small mud-covered log but is soon found to be a tennis shoe containing human bones.
