"Narrated in part by a ghost, When the dust finally settles is a novel focused on land, loyalty and racial politics in the 1968 South. Mawatuck County ... is a place where the present continually collides with the past, a fact underscored by one unseasonably hot, dry week in May. Mabel Stallings is determined to make her grandchild love the family farm as much as she does. Clarence Carter is determined to escape paying taxes by "playing" crazy. Harrison Doxey, a black student in a white majority high school, is determined to dance and drink at The Lido, a whites-only dance hall at the beach."--Publisher's website.
