Overview

"Beautifully done... A book about families... when the reader closes the book, it is with a sense of regret-regret that there is no more." — Boston Herald.

The Shell Seekers is a novel of connection: of one family, and of the passions and heartbreak that have held them together for three generations. The Shell Seekers is filled with real people — mothers and daughters, husband and lovers — inspired with real values. The Shell Seekers centers on Penelope Keeling — a woman you'll always remember in world you'll never forget. The Shell Seekers is a magical novel, the kind of reading experience that comes along only one in a long while.

"A lovely story, the best, really absorbing book I've read in a long time, the kind you hate to put down and especially hate to finish." — The Atlanta Journal & Constitution.

"A novel that excludes warmth, joy and familial interaction, peopled with men and women we will long remeber." — The West Coast Review Of Books
