hottest writers of contemporary fiction. Dickey never fails to leave
his readers breathless and wanting more with books that have been
lauded as "provocative and complex" by Ebony magazine and "smart,
gritty, and gripping" by Publishers Weekly. Now, the New York Times
bestselling author delivers GENEVIEVE, a powerful new novel about love,
betrayal, and a woman's desperate need to leave her past behind.
Through the eyes of her husband (our narrator), we see Genevieve
Forbes. Beautiful, brilliant, and successful, she is a woman who fled
her unhappy small-town life in Alabama and never looked back. Years
later she has a new name, a man who worships her, and no regrets--
until a phone call from home interrupts the peace of her new life,
forcing her to return to the South and the people she left
behind. Accompanying his enigmatic wife on her journey, Genevieve's
husband comes up against the shocking and painful truths about her
past, and finds himself in uncharted territory when he is drawn into a
steamy affair... with his wife's sister. As Genevieve struggles to
face her memories and bury the dead, her husband must come to terms
with his betrayal and make a terrible choice: Can he seek forgiveness
from the woman he knows, loves, and admires? Or is he destined to
follow the one that set his heart aflame?
A smoldering story delivered in stylish prose, GENEVIEVE is full of the
raw emotion and human soul that we have come to expect from the novels
of Eric Jerome Dickey. Taut with contemporary social issues,
unforgettable characters, and a plot that remains surprising to the
last page, Dickey's latest book features a journey-and a
woman-you won't soon forget.
