High Cotton Country

By Leta McCurry

Secrets. Hidden they can destroy her from within. Revealed they can explode her world.A message that her father is dying sends a reluctant Cazzie Randle to his bedside but not to reconcile a lifelong estrangement. She must make him finally reveal the secrets of the memories that haunt her. He must answer the question "Why?" Why did he abandon her? Why did her mother commit an act of unspeakable horror? An explosion of truth in a dusty Texas hill country town reveals old secrets and demands choices. But will she be able to choose or will she be paralyzed by all the old hurts, cruelty and betrayals that have driven her all her life? To find the answer, Cazzie must confront the very essence of who she has become and question whether the price was too high. High Cotton Country is the story of one woman's journey to self-discovery. It is about the inherent dignity of the human being, of the burning desire to be in command of one's own destiny, of the will, not only to survive, but to achieve, and to face adversity with courage and honor. This is not only the story of one woman's fighting spirit, but also of the people who influence her self-esteem, shape her self-image and participate in her destiny.
