The Coming of Cain

They say you can't go home again but Louisa Banks is determined to try. Intent on caring for her brother's two teenagers while he is away in jail she returns to the family farm in West Virginia. It is a difficult homecoming made worse by crash and burn memories and self-induced poverty. Still she perseveres and eventually becomes involved in small town politics and a militant Ganga grower who moonlights as a writer. This explosive combination pushes her to her limits and yet results in self-discovery and a new direction. Hers is a story that boomerangs back on itself and meets the reader head on.
