Abby's Hope

His life suddenly upended...Her heart still held out a hope...On an unseasonably hot, November night in the deep south, John Abrams returns from Atlanta to find his marriage at an end. Four years into their troubled relationship, Raynelle Abrams lies murdered in the hallway of their home. In swift succession, John finds himself arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to twenty-five years for involuntary manslaughter. The small, sleepy township of Bennington, Georgia awakens to corruption and betrayal at its most sinister. Ripples of suspicion fan out over a cast of likely and unlikely characters. Dark secrets from the past and deception come to light with the unraveling of the crime and the search for the true murderer. As John Abrams begins his prison term, he leaves behind two beloved children, a town-full of staunch supporters who believe in his innocence, and unbeknownst to him, a girl whose heart has long been his. But he leaves behind a killer, too; one who wants to strike again. An awakening love might never be and his childhood friend, Abby Weston, might be the next victim. A small-town murder reveals both decades-old secrets and current-day corruption; a long-suppressed love finds new hope amidst threatening danger; and an array of lovable characters are given voice, in this hopeful tale of love, mystery, and southern charm. Take a fun walk through the early 60's with a feel good ending.
