Holy Roller Heart is a southern gothic, coming-of-age, murder mystery set in the 1950s. Thirteen-year-old Moses Grady Witt is a Missouri mugwump navigator, a'straddling a barbed-wire fence while trying to touch both sides of the ground. On one side is Pentecostal zealotry-on the other, Ozarkian witchery. The strain at times almost rips our hero apart. Lucky for Mo, his tiny twin sister, Millie Faye, is there to save him or so she thinks. Mix in a giant Russian boar, a bran'-spankin'-new, red '55 Chevrolet, a magic magnet, and a coffin that won't stay in the grave, plus a cast of unconventional characters and you're in for a wild ride in the vein of Mark Twain.
