Synopsis
When the body of seventeen-year-old Sheila Barnes is found on Lloyd Cotton's dairy farm in 1941, nearly all the citizens of the quiet town of Zebulon, Mississippi, feel the effects of her murder. But those most deeply affected by the tragedy include her young husband, Stoney, and the Cotton family, who took Sheila in and grew to love and respect her.
Though badly abused by her father, labeled “slow-witted,” and burdened with a physical deformity, Sheila approaches life with a natural, cheerful optimism and an unwavering belief in the healing powers of magic. She quickly becomes the Best Friend of eleven–year–old Annette Cotton, and subtly charms and changes those around her, proving to many that true wisdom often comes from unlikely places.
Marshall has created a page–turner of stunning lyrical beauty that is impossible to forget. At the heart of this literary murder mystery is the powerful truth that love conquers all—even death.

From the Publisher
Walking Through Shadows is one of the most unforgettable books I've ever read. And the character of Sheila Carruth Barnes is destined to become a classic of American literature. Marshall evokes the rich emotional fabric of the South in a way reminiscent of To Kill a Mockingbird. This novel sings in your soul long after the last page. It is not one to be missed
About the Author
Bev Marshall, a native of McComb, Mississippi, lived as a nomadic military wife for many years. She returned to her Southern roots and taught English at Southeastern Louisiana University. She lives in Ponchatoula, Louisiana, with her husband. Walking Through Shadows is her first novel.
“My hope is that the readers of Walking Through Shadows will find magic in their own lives, for if I should accomplish that, then I will have repaid all of the storytellers in my family for the wonderful stories that they gave to me.”
