This one sounds awesome! Love the cover - always loved carousel horses. I grew up in "small town" America. It fluctuated between 1800-2500 people. There were 35 students in my graduating class.

Love the carousel horse. My Dad use to take me to the park to ride a carousel when I was a very young child. Every time I see a picture of a carousel or carousel horse I think of Dad and times he took me there to ride my favorite horse.











It is a heartwarming Southern Saga about a perfect family in an imperfect world...
Laura Wilkes has everything a woman could want when she snaps the picture of her five-year-old daughter on the carousel. Each time the carousel comes around Laura snaps another picture, seven in all. This is a day of unforgettable happiness; one of the few Laura has left.
In the months following the stock market crash, the family is beset by tragedy. A homicide that goes unpunished. It's the height of the depression and there are hoards of faceless, nameless men living in train yards and back alleys. The murderer is never caught but the family never gives up hope of finding him.
Now twenty-five years later, Laura's daughter has fallen in love with a policeman. Jack Mahoney is a rookie with little or no power, but he's the one, the only one, who can deliver the justice the family has long awaited.
In a heartwarming family saga that stretches across three generations, and brings back Wyattsville's favorite detective, readers will get to know Jack Mahoney as a young man about to fall in love.
This story is set in the first half of the twentieth century and it is one that will make you fall in love with small-town America.
