READER REVIEWS

Readers can’t get enough of Blood in the Low Country

“Being from Charleston, I was initially interested in reading Blood in the Low Country due to the location of the story. I am an avid reader but seldom write a review. However this book was so good, my conscience would bother me were I not to try to encourage others to get as much pleasure as I did. I could not put it down. I became a member of the Atkins family. Please, Mr. Attaway, write something this good again and soon. I’ll be waiting.”

Reader review

“I couldn’t put the book down. Lots of excitement! Very well written, and the flow was great. I don’t want to give anything away so I’ll leave it right there.”
