Book Description:
Grace Truscott's shocking revelations in her biography of her Southern senator father rock her family and, indeed, Georgia to its very foundations. The truth about his affair with his black secretary and the existence of their daughter jolts the community, derailing Cordelia Truscott's efforts to raise money for her husband's memorial library. Evidently, racism is alive and well in Blessing, Georgia; pillars of the community struggle to come to grips with the difference between reality and social rhetoric, and both Grace and her mother are forced to decide between true love and social conventions. In the tradition of the South's strongest popular fiction, Goudge (Such Devoted Sisters, Viking, 1992) has crafted a poignant and bittersweet story of love and enduring family truths. Readers of Anne Rivers Siddons and Rosamond Pilcher will not be able to put it down.
