Atlanta’s popular author of many delightful novels, Patricia Sprinkle, talks about her latest: *Friday’s Daughter*. It’s a contemporary tale of sisterhood, the South, and matters of the heart centering on the youngest of three sisters who is determined to claim a life of her own in the wake of the death of her father and an unusual bequest. Sprinkle is the author of more than a dozen books including such well-regarded mysteries as *Death on the Family Tree* and *What Are You Wearing to Die?* Her most recent book was *Hold Up the Sky*, which fellow Atlanta author Patti Callahan Henry called ”a beautiful and thoroughly Southern story.”
