BENEATH THE KUDZU
In this psychological thriller, love, betrayal, and murder are set in the beautiful Hunt Country of Northern Virginia. Intertwined with political powers to the north and struggling coal miners in the Appalachian Mountains to the south, a child of the Bible Belt falls victim to a horrific crime. Twenty years later, Catriona McKenna remains haunted by a past in the forgotten corners of her memory. Following her into adulthood through merciless tricks of the mind are the individuals who hold the keys to knowing who she is. Lovers? Betrayers? Saviors? Killers? Will she pursue a promising future without first discovering herself in the past? Four men in varying roles are pulling for her attention, but only one is seeking to silence her. What secrets lie Beneath the Kudzu?
Content Warning: This work is intended for mature audiences (18+). If this book were a movie, it would be rated "R" due to violence, death, murder, sexual situations, childhood trauma, and mild drug use.

REVIEWS
"Beneath the Kudzu was fabulously written. I think I am still shaking from Chapter (xx) because it was gut-wrenching. I did not want to put it down once I started. I had tears in my eyes at the end, because it was a great story. Stephanie Sewell is a master at writing!! Your baby is born and it is so thrilling!!!" (A few days later...) ​"This story continues to rise to my mind throughout the day. It's a great story when a book can do that to the reader." (V.W.) - 5 Stars

"I was pulled in from the start. Being from the South, I could relate to the author's details of southern life as well as characters in this book. I thoroughly enjoyed the story... joy, sorrow, tragedy, intrigue, romance, etc. Many times I thought I would stop reading when I came to the next chapter. I could not!" (A.H.R.) - 5 Stars
