Set in northern Florida, which anyone familiar with Florida knows is not of Florida, just as Florida is not of the South, we follow a barmaid returning to her island home after hearing her dead father calling in a dream, "It's time to come home, Mary." And for her it is time, after several years of wandering America. But the tranquility of a homecoming and settling down aren't in Mary's cards, even though she does land a job at the bar her childhood sweetheart used to own, for she immediately becomes obsessed with learning the "facts," about this sweetheart's murder. But facts are slippery, especially when people want to hide them. And when people sorely want to hide them, searching can become dangerous.... 1686925 9 2003 The Gin Girl total:5|5:1|4:1|3:3|2:0|1:0| 5 18 17 0 0 0 false false Sun Oct 18 21:14:01 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 18 21:14:01 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Oct 11 19:22:27 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 11 19:22:27 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Sep 15 12:27:11 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 15 12:27:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Aug 24 12:09:42 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 24 12:09:42 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 22 21:10:03 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 22 21:10:03 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 01 19:51:36 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 01 19:51:36 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jul 16 00:32:58 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 16 00:33:10 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jul 09 20:46:41 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 20:46:54 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Fri Jun 19 11:26:21 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 19 11:26:21 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jun 14 20:07:48 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 14 20:07:48 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri May 22 13:11:50 -0700 2009 Fri May 22 13:11:50 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon May 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 09:27:59 -0700 2009 Fri May 08 16:17:51 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue May 05 08:17:32 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 08:17:32 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 26 23:24:06 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 23:24:06 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Wed Feb 25 14:47:14 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 25 14:47:14 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 21 23:38:03 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 21 23:38:03 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon Jan 21 11:17:37 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 21 11:17:37 -0800 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1690081
