Three strong-willed Southern women unite to keep an awful secret, without considering the young woman it accidentally damages. While I'm glad I read this novel, Ms. Shaffer would have done her tale more justice by creating a less abrupt ending. As it stands, an otherwise excellent story is amputated, rather than concluded.
Loved this one, read when I was into fiction set in the south. Tracings of "Fried Green Tomatoes". Never got into the sequel, "Those Garrison Women"
Mystery resting in three elderly women involved in a coverup to save a 6 year old girl from a murder charge. Goo ending and moderately interesting.

Three elderly Southern ladies, mystery murder, betrayal and old family secrets. Southern Gothic!
