"Twenty-one-year-old Beaufort waitress, Jolene, has spent the majority of her life living in the shadow of the pain her mother caused, and trying to prove herself worthy of her Aunt's stingy love. Unintentionally pregnant and abandoned again, Jolene tries to outrun her shame in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Songbirds & Stray Dogs is a Southern story, born of sweet tea and the Bible Belt, but it is also a universal story of escaping the burden of your past and finding yourself at home in a strange land."
