Big Stone Gap

Big Stone Gap is a sleepy hamlet where kids get married and start families at eighteen, and stay for ever.

So thirty-five-year old Ave Maria Mulligan is something of an oddity.

A self-proclaimed spinster, as the local pharmacist she's been keeping the townsfolk's secrets for years.

Now Ave Maria is about to discover a scandal in her own family's past that will blow the lid right off her quiet, uneventful life.

Soon she's juggling two unexpected marriage proposals and conducting a no-holds-barred family feud.

The thought of spending the rest of her life in Big Stone Gap is suddenly overwhelming...

With an unforgettable cast of characters and a heroine with an extraordinary story to tell, all living in this quirky, remarkable town where even Elizabeth Taylor pays a visit, BIG STONE GAP is a wonderfully vibrant, unashamedly feel-good debut.
