The celebrated author of The Prince of Tides and Beach Music finally returns to fiction after a fifteen year absence. In South of Broad (Starting at $19.80: Up to 34% in Savings), his fifth novel, Pat Conroy again sets the story in his beloved American South, this time in his native hometown of Charleston, South Carolina. Alternating between the late 1960s and late 1980s, the story is told by writer Leopold King Bloom, who deals with the devastating suicide of his older brother by gathering to himself a collection of vibrant teenage friends. The motley crew is made up of members from all levels of Charleston society, including Leo, hillbillies Niles and Starla Whitehead, aristocratic Molly Huger and Chadworth Rutledge X, and abused but physically beautiful twins Sheba and Trevor Poe. Together the group endures the social tumult of the Civil Rights era South, rebelliously bucking the divisive institutions of Charleston society. Over the next twenty years, the members of the group maintain ties even as they personally rise and fall, until movie star Sheba needs help finding Trevor, now a gay man living in AIDS-ravaged San Francisco. Clamoring fans of Pat Conroy's lush prose will snap up this stirring epic homage to Charleston society and the enduring power of friendship.

Standing in his way, however, is Paul's sophisticated mistress Julie Rutledge, a cultural maven who was on the scene when Paul was killed. While her own deceptive behavior makes her a suspect, Julie is determined to pin the crime on Creighton, doing what she can to stop Derek's case despite their burgeoning romance.

Now firmly ensconced in his twilight years, retired oilman Duane Moore returns back to quaint little Thalia, Texas, to convalesce following a devastating heart attack and the departure of his meth-addicted second wife. Duane is faced now with his mortality, a burden on his thoughts that is quickly relieved by the distraction of Thalia's newest resident, billionaire K.K. Slater. The comely and headstrong Dallas woman has sunk her fortune and efforts into opening a preserve for endangered black rhinoceroses right across the river from Duane's cabin, and though the two come from vastly different worlds, their common stubborn toughness coalesces into an instant rapport and a series of wild adventures that ignites Duane's spirit one last time. The relationship begins to become intimate just as Duane's former psychiatrist Dr. Honor Carmichael arrives back in Thalia to stir up Duane's life again.
