Into the Free

ebook

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 bestselling author of Before We Were Yours

"Readers will fall in love with Millie Reynolds, girl with one eye on the heavens and the other on the savages that occupy our world . . . a searing tale of heartache, faith, forgiveness, and doubt set amid gypsies, angels, addicts, asylums, roughnecks, and rodeo hands." —Neil White, author of In the Sanctuary of Outcasts

"A lyrical, moving, haunting, wise, brutal, warmhearted, and ultimately freeing and inspiring coming-of-age tale told with poetic honesty. . . . Into the Free swept me up and swept me along." —Jennifer Niven, bestselling author of The Ice Master
