Lone Women meets Sorrowland in this sinister and surreal Southern Gothic debut about a woman who escapes her family home to the uncanny woods of northern Georgia and must now contend with haints, ghosts and a literal beast in the woods.

When Judith Rice ran away from the house she grew up in, she thought she severed her abusive mother's hold on her. Seventeen years later, she's made a home for herself in a cottage secluded deep in the forests of northern Georgia. Jude believes she's settled into a quiet life.

But when an enigmatic woman shows up on her doorstep, Jude's tentative peace is threatened by the stranger's presence. The woman is beautiful but unsettling, captivating but uncanny. Caught between her desire for this woman and the violence that seems to simmer just beneath her skin, Jude's past and present clash as the woman stirs up memories that force her to reckon with the violence of her escape years ago.

Haunting and thought-provoking, On Sundays She Picked Flowers is a propulsive debut exploring retribution, family trauma and the power of building oneself back up after breaking down.
