Dorothea Benton Frank has a number of NYT bestsellers under her belt, and her next book Folly Beach doesn't disappoint. Cate Cooper, widowed, homeless and broke, returns to her home town of Folly Beach, SC. Reluctantly, she explores her past in order to find her future in a story about love, loss, family and acceptance. Booklist has said that "Frank specializes in resilient characters who survive thanks to a saucy combination of grit and humor," and Cate continues that tradition.
For those of you attending ALA, Dorothea will be speaking at the ALTAFF Gala Author Tea on Monday, June 27 from 2-4pm (Convention Center – RM 293-296). Hope to see you there!
