Mary Byrd Thornton could know how a reporter couldn' t withstand the storyplot: a nine-year-old guy sexually molested and wiped out on Mother's Day, 1966. A suspect to whom little or nothing would remain. A neighborhood riddled with secrets. No-one, especially the bungling or complicit authorities, had been in a position to solve the offense. Now, 30 years later, the reporter' s call will reel a reluctant Mary Byrd from Mississippi back again to Virginia where she must confront her family - and, once more, the murder's irremovable stain of tragedy. Lisa Howorth' s exceptional Flying Shoes is a work of fiction, however the murder is dependant on the still-unsolved circumstance of her stepbrother, a front side page storyline in the Washington Post. Yet this isn't a crime novel; it is an honest and luminous storyline of a particular time and put in place the South, where even calamitous weather can be considered a figure, everyone has a tale, and each is inextricably entwined. Using a flamboyant cast, wonderful dark humor, a potent sense of record, and a surprising true storyline at its heart and soul, Flying Shoes is a abundant and candid novel from a fresh new southern tone of voice about family and memory space and one woman' s trip from a wounded history.
