About the Book When Mazie Jennings returns to her deceased grandparents’ North Florida farm, she is intent on one thing, self-pity. Her plan is to hide out a while on the river, lick her recent divorce wounds before returning to San Francisco and her high-profile publishing job. For the first time in her life, she feels alone and seeks the refuge of home.However, life throws her another curve and Mazie is not left alone, or allowed time for a private pity party. The farm’s impending grape harvest requires her immediate attention and try, as she will, she cannot escape it. With a community chomping at the bit to come to her aid with the harvest and a handsome, though mysterious, straw boss suddenly available to direct them, the harvest begins, sweeping Mazie along in its frenzy. Most of all, Mazie doesn’t feel up to bucking Queenie, the family’s longtime friend and housekeeper who is hell-bent that Mazie remain and live up to her family responsibilities.As she becomes re-acquainted with old friends, Mazie discovers some are not who they seem. When suspicious activity in the vineyards wake her in the dead of night and fish begin dying in the river behind her home, she struggles to stay uninvolved and alive.Set within the rolling clay and sand hills near the Gulf of Mexico coastline, the riverbank farm has an old and colorful history. Once occupied by Native Americans, early Spanish explorers, Crackers, Gypsies and a small community of French settlers, the land’s multicultural fabric is woven deeply within Mazie’s heritage.Secrets emerge as ancient spirits inhabiting the land make themselves and their secrets known to Mazie alone. She is unsure if she is up to the challenges or even wants the challenges of the life back home.
