Audie Award winner. A century-old conflict continues to roil in the mountains. Linking the forces of historical unrest with the present-day stories of wisefolk Rattler and Nora Bonesteel, McCrumb weaves two overlapping narratives. It is upto Nora and Rattler to calm the Civil War ghosts wandering the mountains, and prevent a clash between the living and the dead. "Lush... harmonious, folksy blend of history and backwoods lore."—Publishers Weekly
