In the Fullness of Time (2025)
Terry Roberts
"Terry Roberts's story had me from page one, drawing me into the town of Marshall, NC, and the lives of the characters there. Like his other novels, In the Fullness of Time isn't so much a mystery as a series of enigmas about the longstanding insecurities that spark the most inscrutable human behaviors. Deft, engrossing, and compassionate, the story delves deeply into the ways a place can shape complicated motivations. Roberts's mountain community is poised between the past and the future, between old recriminations and the desire for change. It's about the long arc of families and history, a paean to the intricate relationships between people, time, and place. I loved it!"
