If a woman wants to marry and live the rest of her life with the "man of her dreams," she will do anything and everything in her power to bring it into existence - even if it means ridding herself of one interesting and significant detail. However, when family members discover her plans and become alarmed, she will race against time and employ the help of some unsavory elements to ensure her evil plans will not be thwarted. "Francine" brings suspense, drama and intrigue, as well as some unfathomable schemes to the jaw-dropping conclusion. The Tidewater region of Virginia is the setting for this fast-paced and emotionally-moving novel.
