The Pecan Man by Cassie Dandridge Selleck
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
Nicely set in 70s New Orleans, that novel is a brief easy read set in one of my favorite places. The characters are well described and interesting. The story has a nice, surprising twist that ties up the loose ends of the mystery and motivations of the title characters and the plucky narrator, Ora Lee Beckworth. (I think she would have a lot in common if bonding over tea with Mary Reinhart's Miss Cornelia Van Gorder.)
