These are well written and well told stories by a relatively unknown author. While all the stories are set in the south, they are something just shy of gothic. The principal theme seems to be human frailty and doubt, particularly in relationships. The standout story is the last one, 65 Million Years, featuring a Catholic priest in a crisis of faith who struggles through confessions until a young man begins asking deeply existential questions. In answering, the priest begins to find his own faith.

3 1/2 stars!!!!

Title gives away dark events

Well developed characters live through harrowing events - in their past and during story timeline. Many diverse characters. Twists and turns of plot will keep you guessing about possibilities of how the story will end. Strength and hope of characters keeps it from being too dark. Not recommended if you have been through traumatic violence..
