About this audiobook

How long will you hold on when your world is gone? In a small southern pecan town, the annual harvest is a time of both celebration and heartbreak. Even as families are forced to sell their orchards and move away, Lil Clearwater, keeper of a secret covenant with her land, swears she never will. When her twin Sasha returns to the dwindling town in hopes of reconnecting with the girl her heart never forgot, the sisters struggle to bridge their differences and share the immense burden of protecting their home from hungry forces intent on uprooting everything they love. But there is rot hiding deep beneath the surface. Ghostly fires light up the night, and troubling local folklore is revealed to be all too true. Confronted with the phantoms of their pasts and the devastating threat to their future, the sisters come to the stark realization that in the kudzu-choked South, nothing is ever as it appears. A story of the love between sisters, and an allegory of decay in small-town America, The Pecan Children walks the line between beauty and horror.

About the author

Quinn Connor is one pen in two hands: Robyn Barrow and Alexandra Cronin. Both writers from young ages, Robyn and Alexandra met in college and together developed their unique cowriting voice. Unless Robyn is trekking in Iceland, or Alexandra is chasing down rumors of homemade pasta in Park Slope, they write every day.

Narrating from a place of curiosity, compassion, and delight, Tiffany Morgan accesses her twenty-plus years as an actor to lift the story from the page and into the listener's imagination. She has recorded over 200 titles, with some of her favorites being cozy mysteries and stories set in the southern United States.
