"Profound and enthralling. This book is a delicate dream, mixing its own internal mythology with a brutal tale of prejudice and human frailty. I can't recommend it enough. Tanzer is absolutely one to watch."
--Seanan McGuire, bestselling, award-winning author of In an Absent Dream

Amityville baywoman Ellie West fishes by day and bootlegs moonshine by night. It's dangerous work under Prohibition--independent operators like her are despised by federal agents and mobsters alike--but Ellie's brother was accepted to college and Ellie's desperate to see him go. So desperate that when wealthy strangers ask her to procure libations for an extravagant party Ellie sells them everything she has, including some booze she acquired under unusual circumstances.

What Ellie doesn't know is that this booze is special. Distilled from foul mushrooms by a cult of diabolists, those who drink it see terrible things--like the destruction of Long Island in fire and flood. The cult is masquerading as a church promising salvation through temperance and a return to "the good old days," so it's hard for Ellie to take a stand against them, especially when her father joins, but Ellie loves Long Island, and she loves her family, and she'll do whatever it takes to ensure neither is torn apart.

100% cotton, but still easy care
Size: Large, Color: Khaki 2
I bought 5 of these pants and I am glad that I did. The elastic waists are easy pull up and down (especially for the mobility handicapped like me). They wash and dry nicely - I don't bother ironing them. They are nice, light summer pants (good year round in FL).

Sizing is off.
Size: Small, Color: 3 Black
Much shorter than expected. Poor fit in the legs as well, at least for me. I’d say they are a couple inches shorter than the size chart. I expected them to be short, but not waiting for a flood. Material was nice but overall not a good fit for me.

Sensory Friendly
Size: X-Large, Color: Medium Grey
Sensory friendly. My son and I are both Autistic and finding comfortable clothing is challenging... Sweats and tshirts are our go to. These pants are an upgrade to our wardrobe- very comfortable and great for lounging at home or dressing them up with a nice shirt to go out for the day. I bought these for my son to try and he loved them! They were a little too tight, (winter weight) so I ordered two more in a bigger size. I however kept these because I love them too. The fabric is a nice and breathable with a slight give. I wore them outside yesterday in the hot AZ heat and I was comfortable and in the evening it cooled down with a rainstorm and I was happy I had these pants on. The pockets are amazing! Don’t get me started on pocket size vs phone size. My iPhone sits way deep in the front pocket and hits about thigh level… my iPhone isn’t going to fall out and that’s good peace of mind knowing my investment is safe. Overall my son and I are very happy with our new pants.
