Descriere magazin:
Prepare to be seduced by a world where forbidden trysts smolder in moonlit barns and whispered secrets echo beneath a reservoir In The Shadow of The Dam, recently published by Ebook Bakery Books and author Bill Seymour. It is a legacy novel Seymour published honoring his grandmother, who 60 years ago used New York City\'s oppression of small upstate rural villages, including Downsville, N.Y., to reveal the raw, rugged, romantic and raucous lifestyles and many of those lives disturbed by NYC\'s quest to take land at any cost. The book was so revelatory that publishers in the early 1960s refused to print it, fearing prosecution like Penguin Books saw for LadyChatterley\'sLover.

In The Shadow of The Dam is a searing, seductive historical-fiction-memoir novel brimming with forbidden affairs, betrayal, and backwoods vice in a Catskills. It fuses the raw intrigue of 1956\'s Peyton Place with the sumptuous scandal of today\'s Netflix\'s Bridgerton and Sex/Life. Dive into covert affairs, simmering gossip, and hypocrisy that binds every small town-where love, power, and survival collide in a daring tale. There\'s sultry Maggie Tiffany, who rents rooms and sells comfort with the same hand, and Trooper Jim Hadden, who polices the town by day and seduces its daughters by night. When seventeen-year-old Polly Howe finds herself drawn into his uniformed arms, the lines between law and lust blur in the moonlight. Meanwhile, the town\'s high school girls learn too early what grown men want-and just how little protection their r
