Book excerpt: A fiery cross and a cadre of hooded thugs can’t scare the Robinson sisters away from their Louisiana land. The five unmarried sisters grapple in a man’s world where a woman’s place is inside the home, not behind a plow on a cotton farm. When Etta May Robinson stumbles over a dead body in their field, a man she knows and fears, the investigation leads to an unexpected reckoning. She has secrets – truths not spoken of in the genteel Southern society of the early 1900s. The sisters’ niece returns to the farm to interview them for a human-interest article, and she learns more about the women who raised her after her father’s tragic accident. Farm life is harsh for the women, and there are many reasons to sell the land and move away. But the more questions Penny asks, digging into the family history, the more reasons she finds to stay and hear the dirt sing.
