Pease River Revival

In the fictional town of Peasy near the Pease River in northwest Texas, the church's fall revival is as important to locals as are the county fair and cotton harvest. But fall revival in Peasy is at a crossroad. Like post-war farms and public education, religion faces radical changes. This is a coming-of-age story as told by Merlina Rea, her neighbors and family. This is a murder mystery set in 1949; the Pease River Killer preys on young women and eludes the law. This is historical fiction, its setting a window into the challenges faced by women, people of color, and rural communities in post-WWII Texas.
