These people a real to me, the dialogue is completely believable and held my attention on every page." - Michelle Wallace <br /> <br />In Charleston, South Carolina, Dewey Moses is a vegetable farmer, a bluegrass musician, and a recovering alcoholic. Since getting booted out of his house and his band, he’s trying to get back on top. Now, he’s a year sober, and selling vegetables at the farmer’s market. But what he knows better than growing heirloom tomatoes is how to get down to the bottom of things. What started out as a favor for a friend is proving to be his most lucrative talent: investigative work. <br /> <br />When Faye Callahan, the wife of one of the most powerful land developers in the South, comes to see him, she puts his talents to the test. Her daughter jumped off the Cooper River Bridge a few days before. She left a suicide note in her abandoned car. There were witnesses. But Faye doesn’t believe it. Having just fallen in love, her daughter was as happy as she’d ever been. Why would she take her own life? Agreeing to help, Dewey finds out quickly that sometimes it’s best to leave things alone. <br /> <br />Off You Go is a smart and quick read, and Dewey Moses is irresistible.
