Katherine Hahn
Where Devils Drown
Is there anything more eerily Southern than a plantation house wake? In Kandlelight, Florida—where doing the hair of the dead is as common as bourbon on a humid night—painter Ravenel Rappley is forced to connect her adoptive mother’s sudden death with the reopening of her birth mother’s cold case.

People say nothing happens when it’s hot, but that’s not true. Heat makes people crazy.
