Caine does her research and that is awesome. For a book set in the South, it's rare that the authors/editors/publishers don't make us all sound like the Beverly Hillbillies with the dialogue. Other than describing Rivard's New Orleans accent (which was great for the imagery because it helped paint the picture of how oily the guy is), all dialogue is straightforward, no forced dialect or other attempts at various nuances of the English language in the different regions of America. Also pretty great that she added the detail that so many streets in Atlanta have Peachtree in the name; they totally do!! This was all especially refreshing as the last book I read was set in Georgia and was written by an author who it seems had never been to Georgia before, but only just found out last week that it was even a state. Refreshing, and gives me even more respect for this author.
