Book Overview
Three strangers share an abandoned mansion over a single tumultuous summer: Three different voices relate the same series of events that occur, offering three contrasting versions of what actually happened.
There is, of course, only one truth; it is not revealed until the end.
The players:
* Don Grimes is an underemployed, forty-year-old dishwasher squatting inside his late eccentric uncle's farmhouse, the site of a series of unsolved murders from the 1950s.
* Lillian Schumacher is a true-crime-author wannabe who wants to spend the summer solving the decades old murder mystery at ground zero.
* Bianca is a runaway teenage prostitute from a nearby migrant camp who is hiding out in the cupola of the strange house, unbeknownst to the two adults downstairs.
The story is told in three parts, each written in first-person. The events are related first by a man, then by a woman, and finally by a child. The individual stories reveal the maze of deceptions that each is foisting upon the others, especially as it develops that the Littlefarm murders are still continuing to this day.
The Awful Grace of Littlefarm is a murder mystery and a psychological drama interspersed with dark humor.
