HTML:<b>If you fell in love with 1960s North Carolina when reading <i>Where the Crawdads Sing</i> by Delia Owens, Donna Everhart's <i>The Moonshiner's Daughter</i> will transport you right back. Everhart's sensitive and expert storytelling will capture you in this Southern coming-of-age novel!</b><br /> <br /> <b><i>Set in North Carolina in 1960 and brimming with authenticity and grit,</i></b> <b>The Moonshiner's Daughter <i>evokes the singular life of sixteen-year-old Jessie Sasser, a young woman determined to escape her family's past . . .</i></b><br /> <br /> Generations of Sassers have made moonshine in the Brushy Mountains of Wilkes County, North Carolina. Their history is recorded in a leather-bound journal that belongs to Jessie Sasser's daddy, but Jessie wants no part of it. As far as she's concerned, moonshine caused her mother's death a dozen years ago.<br /> <br /> Her father refuses to speak about her mama, or about the day she died. But Jessie has a gnawing hunger for the truth—one that compels her to seek comfort in food. Yet all her self-destructive behavior seems to do is feed what her school's gruff but compassionate nurse describes as the "monster" inside Jessie.<br /> <br /> Resenting her father's insistence that moonshining runs in her veins, Jessie makes a plan to destroy the stills, using their neighbors as scapegoats. Instead, her scheme escalates an old rivalry and reveals long-held grudges. As she endeavors to right wrongs old and new, Jessie's loyalties will bring her to unexpected revelations about her family, her strengths—and a legacy that may provide her with the answers she has been longing for.<br />.
