Sixty souls were staring down starvation on a war-torn South Carolina plantation…Then an outsider arrived.
As the Civil War ends, two women—former enslaved house servant and plantation mistress—fight for control of a doomed South Carolina rice plantation. Each woman believes she owns the place, and each has plans for her son to run it. One day, a desperate Irish immigrant arrives with mysterious seeds hidden in her underskirt that she says will make a profitable crop. As natural disasters destroy all crops and hope, she comes up with a bizarre money-making idea, then another.
In this tale that follows several characters from the author’s earlier novel, THE RICE BIRDS, the Irish visitor battles the headwinds of the post-war chaos.

Lindy Keane Carter is a graduate of the University of Georgia’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication. The Irish Visitor is her fourth published novel. Her last novel, The Rice Birds, was a huge hit at Main Street Reads!
