In this coming-of-age novel, a white, small-town Kentucky teen uncovers dark secrets while investigating her mother’s suspicious death in 1972. In 1972, on Mudas Summers’s seventeenth birthday, her beloved Mama, Ella, is found hanging from the rafters of their home. Most people in Peckinpaw, Kentucky, assume that Ella’s no-good husband did the deed. Others think Ella grew tired of his abuse and did it herself. Muddy is determined to find out for sure either way, especially once she finds strange papers hidden amongst her mama’s possessions. But Peckinpaw keeps its secrets buried deep. Muddy’s almost-more-than-friend, Bobby Marshall, knows that better than most. Though he passes for white, one of his ancestors was Frannie Crow, a slave hanged a century ago on nearby Hark Hill Plantation. Adorning the town square is a seat built from Frannie’s gallows. A tribute, a relic—and a caution—it’s known as Liar’s Bench. Now, the answers Muddy seeks soon lead back to Hark Hill, to hatred and corruption that have echoed through the years—and lies she must be brave enough to confront at last. “Glorious… Liar’s Bench succeeds on many levels…. Much of any reader’s delight will be rooted in savoring the sounds, smells, tastes, and fragrances that enhance her captivating vision of a typical Southern small town during two linked periods of its history.”—Southern Literary Review “This has southern small-town charm… includes recipes and discussion questions and may appeal to those who like Rebecca Wells or Jennifer Chiaverini.”—Booklist “A satisfying mystery with thought-provoking historical elements, written in a sassy Southern voice.”—Historical Novels Review

Gabriella is born as one of thirteen children into a poor family who suffer many trials while she is growing up: freezing conditions in winter, limited space and sibling rivalry for love and affection. Her mother believes the family is cursed, thanks to the words of an old neighbour. Gabriella survives the early loss of her father, terrifying abuse and poor treatment in her relationships, to eventually begin to make use of her incredible singing voice. A period of her life is spent mingling with the stars and enjoying the acclaim that her performance brings. More tragedies await, however, in the form of deaths, bad luck, low confidence and a gripping addiction, and it seems Gabriella's dreams will forever be just outside her grasp. Was the curse real, or do our own decisions shape our destinies? Gabriella's ups and downs invite us to consider these and other questions about life and choices.
