โฆ Synopsis
From the bestselling author of Sweet Tea Tuesdays comes a story of true love that spans decades.Lillian Alexanderโs father is dying of cancer. When he rambles on in a morphine-delirium, Lillian canโt ignore the feeling heโs trying to tell her something. At his funeral days later, she encounters ghosts from her past who stir long-suppressed memories from the day her mother died twenty-seven years ago. Why, if her motherโs death was an accident, does Lillian harbor guilt, as though she were somehow to blame?When Lillian and her twin sister, Layla, learn the Stoney family fortune is gone, Lillian fights to save her ancestral home on Charlestonโs prestigious East Battery. Desperate to resolve her money problems and get answers to her questions about the past, she tears her fatherโs study apart in search of clues. She discovers a thumb drive in a hollowed-out hardback copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls. The thumb drive, marked For Lillian in his handwriting, contains her fatherโs memoir. Secluded in the familyโs cottage on Wadmalaw Island, she immerses herself in her fatherโs account of his stormy relationship with her mother. What she learns sets her on a journey of self-discovery.Tangled in Ivy is a tale of tortured souls and southern family dysfunction.
