The Next Feast...
Nicole Seitz
author of "Trouble the Water" at Pawleys Plantation.
"A lowcountry tale about hope, healing, and the mysterious powers of sisterhood. Set in the South Carolina Sea Islands, Seitz's second novel once again delves into the mysteries surrounding life and death, following the stories of a capricious widow and two middle-aged sisters. Narrated in three distinct voices, "Trouble the Water" is at once heart-wrenching and humorous, giving glimpses of island life and the unique Gullah/Geechee culture."
