Based on a true story.
When a 16-year-old Southern Baptist girl from Fayetteville, Georgia came up pregnant in 1958, the parents tried desperately to figure out a way to save their families reputation and their soiled daughter’s honor. Threats of violence were levied against the alleged father as anger ran rampant through the family. Was it rape, or consensual? What was to be done with the unborn child? Would it be hidden, aborted or given up for adoption? Was her mistake an isolated incident or a pattern of whorish behavior? Only Marilyn knows the answers, and she’s not telling.
Tony StCyr has been living in Georgia his entire life. He loves being outdoors and enjoys fishing and golf. He is a published songwriter, and his music and songs have been sung and played all over the United States. He has won numerous writing awards including one Communicator Award for News Humor. He started writing when he was 16 years old. His 11th grade literature teacher recognized him as an amazing and aspiring writer. When she signed his yearbook she wrote, “I look forward to reading your writings in the future”. Tony penned a Christmas play for his church that was later turned into a local TV production. Over the years his writings have made people both laugh and cry. This book will be no different, although he believes it is his most inspiring work to date.
