    [synopsis] => Set in 1970s and 90s East Texas, Possum Run is a literary debut about a scrappy young woman and the partner-in-crime she can't escape from, perfect for readers of Where the Crawdads Sing and Valentine.
It was 1970 when thirteen-year-old, Kit Walker was abducted by Manny Romero, a smooth-talking, low-level criminal. Longing for the family and security she never had, she allowed herself to be coddled and groomed, into Manny's partner-in-crime. Before long, Kit and Manny became infamous for their string of gas station robberies throughout Texas, making a name for themselves as the Texaco Twosome.
But, as Manny's fatherly demeanor shifts to something darker and more violent, Kit is forced to reconsider their relationship and her own safety. In a flash decision, she leaves Manny at a holdup gone wrong.
Thirteen years after her escape, she has made a home for herself and her daughter amongst the pecan trees and muddy creeks of the claustrophobic town of Possum Run. When Manny shows up at her doorstep a new man, fresh out of prison, Kit's profound and twisted attachment to him compels her to let him in. Immediately, Kit's world is transformed and her community is sent into a tailspin.
With its rich landscape, indelible characters, and evocative language, Possum Run is a hauntingly intimate and distinctly original debut about the strength and vulnerability of womanhood and the complexity of love-both romantic and familial. This penetrating, gritty, and unexpectedly tender novel ensnares the reader in its story of resilience and the bonds that define us.
