Summary
Rivanna Rivers wants to find the father who abandoned
her, leaving her saddled with the same name as a local tributary.
Matt Breeden wants to avoid going to jail, but that's
difficult when your politically avaricious family invites scandal and you
support them with a booming moonshine business.
Annabelle Freeman just wants to make it through
"Back-to-School Night" without anyone discovering that she has buried
her grandfather in the garden.
Disparate lives intersect and while one teen grows up,
another gets the chance to enjoy her childhood and the adult in her life learns
about the responsiblities of fatherhood.
The story takes place in
Gloucester, Virginia, where politics are strong, kids are at school and there
are people who still make a living from the production of Moonshine.
Two best friends have their lives altered in
unrelated circumstances. From here the story merges in with other residents and
we learn their backgrounds and how they connect to the other characters in the
town that are featured in the book as well.
Sofie has done a superb job writing this prequel. I
enjoyed every minute while reading it; I was always looking forward to what was
going to happen next. It has a great plot and I love the mix of characters that
are in it! And also some of them appear to have a hint of some sort of
supernatural abilities (think the TV show Ordinary Family)...... I thought that
this story has been set up for what's to come in the future and has shaped the
way characters will be in the rest of the series.
And to throw in a quote from a Bangles song!!
Fantastic!! Well done Sofie!!
