Lucille Rises. In Smith County, surviving was never the hard part. (en Inglés) - Wayne McCulley

In Smith County, surviving was never the hard part.

In the heat and shadows of South Carolina, bad luck isn't just a streak; it's a curse.

Lucille has spent her life surviving things no one should have to endure. Violence, betrayal, and loss follow her like a warning she can't outrun. Sharp-minded and resilient, she learns early that strength isn't about being fearless: it's about standing back up when the world keeps knocking you down.

Life in Smith County chooses its victims randomly. Until it doesn't. A woman of old money and older secrets makes Lucille an offer that could lift her out of everything Smith County was going to make of her life.

Lucille Rises is a dark, suspenseful Southern novel about the cost of survival and the price of escape - where secrets are deadly and rising may be the most dangerous move of all.
