Dorothea Benton Frank is a native of the South whose novels vividly capture the wild beauty, laidback atmosphere, earthy characters, and charming eccentricities of life in South Carolina's Lowcountry. Written with compelling honesty and emotional depth, her stories have touched readers from coast to coast, and propelled her to the top ranks of bestsellerdom nationwide.

When Caroline Wimbley Levine returned to Tall Pines Plantation, she never expected to make peace with longburied truths about herself and her family. The Queen of Tall Pines, her late mother, was a force of nature, but now she is gone, leaving Caroline and the rest of the family uncertain of who will take her place.

In the lush South Carolina countryside, old hurts, betrayals, and dark secrets will surface, and a new generation will rise along the banks of the mighty Edisto River.

Wonderfully evocative, infused with humor and poignancy, and rich with the lyrical cadences of the South, Lowcountry Summer is vintage Dorothea Benton Frank, a deeply moving novel you'll want to savor and share.

Why I Recommend Audible by Alan Twigg

Audible (an Amazon.com company) is the world's leading online audio-book provider. Audible is responsible for supplying audio content to Apple's ITunes service. I have been listening, enjoying and creating audio books for many years. With the arrival of the internet and portable digital devices, audio-books began to become availalbe for download.

Having tried most of the other download services myself, I finally came to the conclusion that Audible offers the best and most reliable service. Whether you are using an IPod, IPhone, mobile phone, Dune or one of the many other MP3 players availalbe, Audilbe makes downloading great quality audio content easy and umcomplicated.


In addition to this, Audible also boasts the most comprehensive collection of audio books anywhere. Depending on the promotion currently on offer, you can download any audiobook of your choice for free (including almost certainly the title on this page, too).
