Slave Graves
Tom Hollyday's newest novel "Slave Graves" is
set in contemporary, coastal Maryland and explores issues both current and
timeless: slavery and the triumph of the need to be free; greed versus
generosity; and the allure of love.
The cast of characters is varied and lively. A mysterious shipwreck is
discovered under a Maryland marsh. An expensive real estate project is held up
while the site is evaluated for historical significance, while local researchers
fend off impatient contractors who are losing money for failing to meet
deadlines.
Hollyday's always present and eclectic universe of Maryland characters living
and dead, including a mysterious water man of Mexican heritage, Native
Americans, farmers, birdwatchers, Confederates and ghosts, converge on and add
color to the site.
Hollyday is a military historian with numerous scholarly pieces to his credit
and is a member in good standing of the Boston literary scene.
