A 15-year-old planter's daughter commits the unpardonable social sin of marrying a man beneath her family's social station. But following her sudden death, the people of Murrell's Inlet, South Carolina, began to see a despondent ghost who haunts the countryside even today.
Rhyne has a special place in my heart of capturing the spirit of the Carolina coast. We have a number of her books. This one, like the other, has a good, local story. The writing itself, however, is adequate.
