But her true solace is the Lowcountry island her beloved granddaddy left her -- an oasis of breathtaking beauty that is home to a band of wild ponies. When Caro learns that her husband must develop the island or lose the business, she is devastated. The Lowcountry is her heritage -- and what will happen to the ponies whose spirit and freedom have captivated her since childhood? Saving the island could cost Caro more than she ever imagined.

True Enough: Learning to Live in a Post-Fact Society : Why has punditry lately overtaken news? Why do lies seem to linger so long in the cultural subconscious even after they've been thoroughly discredited? And why, when more people than ever before are documenting the truth with laptops and digital cameras, does fact-free spin and propaganda seem to work so well? "True Enough" explores leading controversies of national politics, foreign affairs, science, and business, explaining how Americans have begun to organize themselves into echo chambers that harbor diametrically different facts--not merely opinions--from those of the larger culture.
