Youngstown, Ohio, 1977. Between the closing of the city's largest
steel mill and the worst blizzard in more than 40 years, the table
is set for remarkable change. Unemployed steel worker Bobby Wayland
is trying hard to help his family and still pay for his wedding,
but the only solution he can think of involves breaking the law. On
the other side of town, a little girl named Hope is keeping a big
secret, one she won't even share with her Great Uncle Joe--she can
make things move without touching them. Watching over both of them
is the city herself, and she has something to say and something to
do about all of this. The Heebie-Jeebie Girlis the story of an era
ending and the uncertainty that awakens. It's the story of what
happens when the unconscionable meets the improbable. It's the
story of dreams deferred, dreams devoured, and dreams dawning. It
is likely to be the most distinctive novel you read this year, but
it will startle you with its familiarity. Author Susan Petrone has
created an unforgettable tale of family, redemption, and magic.
