Page From A Tennessee Journal
Summary
It is 1913, shortly before the start of the First World War, and Annalaura is alone again. Her gambling, womanizing husband has left the plot they sharecrop in rural Tennessee - why or for how long she does not know. Without food or money and with her future tied to the fate of the season’s tobacco crop, Annalaura struggles to raise her four children. When help comes in the form of an amorous landowner, who is she to turn it - and him - away? In this remarkable first novel, as bracingly original as it is exquisitely rendered, Francine Howard tells a moving story of American desire and ambition and the tragic, slippery boundaries of race under Jim Crow.

Death's Door: The Immortal Descendants Story
Summary
A master of the macabre and an ageless crusader cross paths in the shadows of time... “Ye who read are still among the living; but I who write shall have long since gone my way into the region of shadows.” (Edgar Allan Poe) The first time Alexandra “Ren” Reynolds meets Edgar Allan Poe is the night he walks into her underground bar - over 170 years after his mysterious death. Ren has heard rumors of “Clockers” - the Descendants of Time who can travel through portals. But until she can find the portal Poe accidentally used to reach 21st Century Baltimore, she’s stuck with him. And there is a problem: Someone else has seen Poe and now they’re hunting for him. Not even Ren’s fledgling friendship with Officer Nick Pieretti will keep the vigilante away. Hiding an arrogant anti-abolitionist in a secret room in her bar – once a station along the Underground Railroad - is oddly satisfying to the descendant of slaves. But Ren has much bigger secrets to conceal than the out-of-time presence of Edgar Allan Poe, and the events that transpire during their brief time together will alter both their destinies forever.
