"Katie Tennyson Burns is caught at the stage of life when everything is both wonderful and terrible. She is caught, as well, in a struggle for her spirit
--in a contest between a prim and sensible mother and a beautiful and reckless cousin. A riveting novel about the conflict between manners and
freedom, between those who live by the rules and those who bend and twist them."

- Carolina Moon: A Novel
"Set in Fulton, North Carolina, this novel involves a not-so-random sampling of contemporary Fultonians whose lives intersect at a single place,
Quee's place. Quee Perdy, an energetic, widowed free-spirit past 60, is an entrepreneur for whom love and sex are the commodities in which
she deals. McCorkle's storytelling skills allow her to juggle six parallel stories--including murder--in a novel about playing God."
