The Sisters of Glass Ferry

A SIBA OKRA Pick

â€œAn emotionally resonant tale of secrets, regret, and absolution that held me spellbound. You simply have to read it.â€ â€”Sara Gruen, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Water for Elephants

Spanning several decades and written in an authentic voice both lyrical and wise, The Sisters of Glass Ferry is a haunting novel about small-town Southern secrets, loss and atonement, and the unbreakable bond between siblings.

Glass Ferry, Kentucky, is bourbon country. Whiskey has been a way of life for generations, enabling families to provide and survive even in the darkest times. Flannery Butlerâ€™s daddy, Beauregard â€œHoney Beeâ€ Butler, was known for making some of the best whiskey in the state, aged in barrels heâ€™d take by boat up and down the Kentucky River until the rocking waters turned the spirits smooth and golden. Flannery is the only person Honey Bee ever entrusted with his recipes before he passed on, swearing her to secrecy as he did so.

But Flannery is harboring other secrets too, about her twin sister Patsy, older by eight minutes and pretty in a way Flannery knows sheâ€™ll never be. Then comes the prom night when Patsyâ€”wearing a yellow chiffon dress and the family pearlsâ€”disappears along with her date. Every succeeding year on the twinsâ€™ birthday, Flanneryâ€™s mother bakes a strawberry cake, convinced that this is the day Patsy will finally come home. But it will be two tumultuous decades until the muddy river yields a clue about what happened that night, compelling Flannery to confront the truth about her sleepy town, her familyâ€™s past, and the choices she and those closest to her have made in the name of love and retribution . . .

â€œRichardson has a knack for layering a landscape with secrets, for slowly revealing whatâ€™s hidden until suddenly you find what you've been chasing sitting in the palm of your hand. The Sisters of Glass Ferry is bountifully writtenâ€”a place fully realized and packed with characters you wonâ€™t soon forget.â€ â€”David Joy, author of The Weight Of This World

â€œThe Sisters of Glass Ferry peels back the layers of a small town to reveal a labyrinth of long-buried secrets and dangerous lies. Richardson delivers a gripping, hauntingly atmospheric Southern Gothic tale that stayed with me long after I turned the last page.â€ â€”Karen Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of Liar Temptress Soldier Spy

â€œThis heart-rending, lovely family drama spans sixty years and four generations, peeling back the layers of a small town to reveal a labyrinth of long-buried lies and a wealth of dangerous secrets suspended between three families. The Sisters of Glass Ferry is so fast paced I couldnâ€™t stop turning the pages, but then Iâ€™d smash into another jewel-like sentence and have to stop to reread it. Kim Michele Richardson writes with an authentic Southern voice straight out of Kentucky, well graveled, rough with moonshine, and damn near irresistible.â€ â€”Joshilyn Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of gods in Alabama and The Almost Sisters
