Even in death, her spirit lived on. THE GHOST OF SAREY JANE is a Southern Gothic Romeo and Juliet tale with a touch of Macbeth and To Kill a Mockingbird. Sarey Jane Munroe is an emotionally and physically abused young girl living in rural Appalachia. The time is 1916. Her only escape is her friendship with Billy Puckett. There’s just one problem–their families have been feuding for generations. When Sarey’s father discovers their friendship, he vows to end it…at all costs. Their decision to run away sets in motion a string of consequences that resound for generations to come. If you enjoyed "Whispering of the Willows, Book 1: An American Gothic Novel - Southern" by Tonya Jewel Blessing or "Every Bone a Prayer" by Ashley Blooms, you'll find this novel intriguing and entertaining. The book is "...hauntingly romantic...an amazing journey through time and place that proved love is truly timeless. A must read!" (The Hernando Sun) "...a fast-paced novel that draws you in with its attention to historic detail. It features interesting characters and realistic situations." (The Mountain Eagle) Although different, as far as the setting goes, THE GHOST OF SAREY JANE has the tone and feel of "Where the Crawdads Sing."
