Step aboard and set sail on a deeply personal journey through South Carolina’s Lowcountry in The Lady of McCalleys Creek, a vivid memoir of grit, grace, and the tide-driven life of a first-time shrimper.

Told through the eyes of Terry L. Futrell, this heartfelt and humorous narrative blends the thrill of commercial fishing with the challenges of starting over in unfamiliar waters. From rigging shrimp nets on the “Little Drag-in Wagon” to tangling with old ghosts and new gossip, each page immerses you in the briny beauty, dangers, and divine moments of the Lowcountry.

What begins as a dream of living waterside becomes an unforgettable chapter of resilience, redemption, and unexpected friendship. With a camera strapped to her bibs and faith tucked in every tackle box, Futrell captures not just shrimp—but powerful snapshots of life, loss, and laughter.
