From the Author
Ms. Andrews grew up in the foster care system, became an educator, and essentially avoided the stereotypical pitfalls of children who leave the foster care system. Her characters reflect many aspects of her life. Her father spoke the Gullah/Geechee language to her often as a child. At the time,she had no idea about this rich heritage. As an adult, and through research, Ms. Andrews learned that Gullah/Geechee is more than just a language. It is an African American culture and legacy shared throughout the coasts of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, across a section of more than a thousand islands that sit along the coasts of the mainland of these states. Join Ms. Andrews with a glass of teacola, mullet, red rice, sweet potato pone, and a comforting dollop of curiosity, as you share an exciting, mysterious journey with her.

About the author

The Gathering of Gemstones: A Poetry Collection, by Judy C. Andrews, was published at the height of the 2020 global pandemic. The collection is an intriguing, sensual, and compelling reflection concerning social and personal issues related to her African American culture. Her thrilling and suspenseful page-turners are the novels, An Ocean of Jewels, and A Gift to Treasure. Ms. Andrews enjoys writing stories from an inspiring Gullah perspective. Her characters are usually foster children, educators, freemasons, and amateur sleuths who seek ways to rectify dangerous situations or experiences. Her literary works have explored such issues as sex-trafficking, foster care, the opioid epidemic, freemasonry, Gullah culture, and Colorism.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 28, 2019Format: KindleVerified PurchaseAuthor Judy Andrews serves up a complex set of story dynamics. This story required intense thought to connect the pieces that revealed the evil crimes hidden in plain sight in this affluent black community. Psychological Thriller meets Chick Lit in a way that had me, as a reader flipping back to review clues, trying to guess the outcome. Judy Andrews assembled this intricate plot like a true master of her art.
