Real moonshine comes in two flavors: legal and illegal. Walker Westberry lives for adventure, trouble, and thrives on the high-risk nature of his family's illegal moonshine operation in the Black Mountains of North Carolina. Until one midnight raid forces him to abandon it all.
Young widow Caroline Colley's grief is real and it haunts her in ways no person can grasp-her mind polluted by a painful history that's left her disarranged. Rather than face her troubles under the watchful eyes of Melroy's gossip mill, she looks for a fresh start.
Dixon Artope, medical student, can't bear to speak of the sins he's committed, especially since it was all for nothing. He'd had big plans. Graduate. Set up practice. Marry. Have children, but not too many. Become mayor maybe. But he was robbed of his dream. With no prospect of practicing as a respected physician in Georgia, he decides he needs to get the hell out of there.
What these people need is a change in scenery, a fresh start where no one knows their stories. Where they find themselves is on the road to Element Dale, Texas. But running away from your troubles is never the answer. For trouble follows sin as sure as fever follows a chill.
Trouble finds them in Elemdale.
If you stroll through the streets of the little town and pause a moment to take it all in-the people, their drama-it doesn't amount to much. It is what you cannot see that makes the town tick. For only in Elemdale are the dead given a place in which to linger. However, not all wish to stay. With the help of Elzi Dupre, maybe they won't have to.
The Harbinger of Elemdale is a tense, unputdownable gritty suspense from debut author Bebo Franklin that explores the twisted ways the past can whisper into the present-sometimes with deadly consequences.
