A New York Times Bestseller
For years‚ twelve-year-old CeeCee Honeycutt has been the caretaker of her psychotic mother‚ Camille. The tiara-toting‚ lipstick-smeared laughingstock of an entire town‚ Camille was a woman trapped in her long-ago moment of glory as the 1951 Vidalia Onion Queen. But when she is hit by a truck and killed‚ CeeCee is left to fend for herself. To the rescue comes her previously unknown great-aunt Tootie in her vintage Packard convertible.
