Plagued throughout her life by mysterious dreams\, and always living in the shadow of her beautiful sister\, Addie\, Phoebe eventually moves to the West Coast\, as far from her family as possible. Now\, years later\, she is summoned back to South Carolina\, to help Addie care for their ailing mother. \nAs Phoebe’s return lures her back into deep-rooted tensions and conflicts\, she is drawn to Celeste\, whose granddaughter went missing years ago. Their connection brings comfort to Phoebe\, while Celeste’s adult grandson Liam resurrects complicated emotions tied to Phoebe’s past.\nBut the longer Phoebe spends in her childhood home\, the more her recurring nightmares intensify—bringing her closer to the shocking truth that will irrevocably change everything. Unfolding against the lush backdrop of the South Carolina Lowcountry\, That Last Carolina Summer is an unforgettable story about the unbreakable bonds of family and the gift of second chances. \n“This multi-generational story is layered with juicy family secrets while exploring sisterhood\, the power of memory\, and the pull of home. The perfect summer read.”—Jamie Brenner\, bestselling author of A Novel Summer \n“Karen White brings all her magnificent storytelling gifts to this stunner of a novel. As much as you want to race along and discover all the secrets\, you find yourself stopping to savor the truths she weaves into every twist and turn. If That Last Carolina Summer has a flaw\, it is this: you won’t ever want to wake up from its spell.”—Beatriz Williams\, bestselling author of Husbands & Lovers \nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nKaren White is a New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author with millions of copies of her books in print in fifteen different languages. When not writing\, Karen spends her time reading and bird-watching. She and her husband have two grown children and a spoiled Havanese dog\, Sophie\, and she divides her time between Atlanta\, Georgia\, and the northwest Florida coast. \n  \n  \n  \n\nThis program and others like this would not be possible without your financial help for which\, as always\, Pat Conroy Literary Center gratefully thanks you.
