Madam Honey chronicles the life of a madam of a brothel in the Deep South. Madam Honey is permitted to operate her establishment with a bloody iron fist; as long as she follows two golden rules; compensate the town sheriff regularly to avoid being jailed, and never under any circumstances lay a finger on any of the white patrons who frequent the brothel. She has no problem following these two rules until unknowingly, her murderous past comes back to haunt her. This novel transforms a brothel into an adult educational center, where each character employed by Madam Honey is forced to examine themselves in order to move on in life. Tears, humor, and revenge are deeply woven throughout, yet most of the characters realize that in order to move on, they must learn to forgive. Only then will peace of mind settle into their lives and they can begin a normal life.
