About the Book
After her divorce, Jane Springer Culwell returns to live with her family at Springer Hill, a farm near the Village of Kirk’s Grove in East Texas. The Springers are landed gentry in the pious and narrow community. Suddenly, inexplicably, her brother Matt appears to have hanged himself. The family’s initial impulse is to avert scandal. They arrange a hurried and private burial and use their power to stifle further inquiry. Jane does not believe her brother committed suicide. She alienates family, friends, and the man she had once thought to marry to search for the truth.
