Saturated in Southern ambiance and written in the vein of other
literary bestsellers like Kathryn Stockett's The Help and Tom
Franklin's Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter, Julie Cantrell's New
York Times bestselling Into the Free that will sweep you away long
after the novel ends. In Depression-era Mississippi, Millie
Reynolds longs to escape the madness that marks her world. With an
abusive father and a "nothing mama," she struggles to find a place
where she really belongs. For answers, Millie turns to the Gypsies
who caravan through town each spring. The travelers lead Millie to
a key that unlocks generations of shocking family secrets. When
tragedy strikes, the mysterious contents of the box give Millie the
tools she needs to break her family's longstanding cycle of madness
and abuse. Through it all, Millie experiences the thrill of first
love while fighting to trust the God she believes has abandoned
her. With the power of forgiveness, can she finally make her way
into the free? Millie is just a girl. But she's the only one strong
enough to break the family cycle. "Gritty, compelling, and
beautifully told, Into the Free will take you into a coming-of-age
story filled with heartrending hardship and luminous hope. Julie
Cantrell is a writer to watch!" -Lisa Wingate, New York Times
