Melva Haggar Dye Shares a Stirring Story of Truth That Was Kept in Silence for Years

By: WebWire

“Over the Devil's Back” is a detailed and thrilling story with a twist. The character development in the novel paints an eloquent picture of the distinct mentalities of different generations. The author takes the reader through 20 years of friendship, suspense and truth as a mystifying event is finally revealed. This southern family saga is filled with fascinating characters and intrigue with twists and turns.

The story follows Gabrielle Westin, the white daughter and granddaughter of the wealthy and powerful Remington-Westin clan, and Leander Washington, the African American son of a family of modest means. Their deep and platonic friendship is sealed in their emotional blood sibling's ceremony, in which they pledge commitment to one another throughout life and vow to have no secrets between them. Sadly, however, a tragic event that Leander discovers causes him to break his oath of not keeping secrets. Out of love for Gabrielle and her family, he vows to remain silent. The burden of silence is heavy for Leander to bear, but if revealed he fears it could destroy a family. He chooses friendship over justice and hides the truth to protect someone he loves.

The author perfectly crafted and artistically narrates the details as if in an actual scene. A story that captures the essence of the dynamics of strong characters and surprisingly the story's plot. Readers will surely be hooked, grasping all the events, only to have something happen that keeps them guessing.

“Over the Devil's Back” was named a Finalist in the National Indie Book Awards. This 400+ pages book is worth every page turn and will surely sustain the reader's interest until the very end.

Book copies are available at Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Over-Devils-Back-Melva-Haggar/dp/1956001417/) and other online book retailers.
