Sister Blackberry

Eighty-seven-year-old Viola Garland has secrets that have tormented her for over sixty years. She has remained silent to protect her family. When human remains are discovered at a Rayes County building site, a choice Viola made as a young woman hides no more.
The lie has kept the family disjointed but Viola knows the truth will surely destroy it.

What is unearthed shakes the family foundation leaving those behind wondering who they are and how they fit into the only family they've ever known.
Set in the 1936 rural south, Sister Blackberry is a story about women, who are friends, sisters, mothers, daughters, and granddaughters, and how their relationships are affected by secrets, a lifetime of omissions and outright lies from the past.
